How do I look after my wood wheel?

Just a quick wipe with a microfibre cloth should suffice. The wood is protected by many layers of PU undercoat and varnish. Please do avoid touching the wheel if you have petrol, diesel or oil on your hands. Any minor scuffs on either the polished aluminium spokes or the lacquered wood can be polished out using T-cut, sparingly (and always patch test an unseen area initially).
