Default Cycle Dryer
I picked up a mini air blower called Cycle Dry at my dealer today. This thing is so powerful it dries your bike in minutes after a washing. I used to use my portable leaf blower but could never get into the nooks and crannies. Anyone else using one of these?

The hose has a quick disconnect so you can store it in its own bag. It’s very powerful and
so portable that it will even fit in my saddle bag.

Some of them down this way use compressors. If I was to blowdry mine I'd go down that path as you can use the compressors for a lot of other tasks.

i too use my compressor, but not on the paint, i towel the paint dry, but use hte air on all the rest, i put a piece of hosde over the end of the blow gun to protectt he bike ifi get to close.

Compressed air can have dirt and oil in it. i am very temped by this Cycle-Dryer.
