Garden / bucket of water / Muc-Off and elbow grease.
Lube, polish and pack away...

You don't want to jetwash it anyway - you'll kill the poor thing!

Agreed, just get a garden hose on it and some Muc-Off.

Down kings road, the shell/texaco has a jet wash outside.

Jet washers are ok if your careful with them and don't start blasting the bearing points, but be ready to give it a good service afterwards as well. Bucket and a sponge/brushes works best for me, then a rinse with the hose.

Take it from your initial query you must live in a flat, as no garden or outside tap available..

As mentioned above, using a high powered jet anywhere near the BB or pivot points and bearings will destroy them very quickly, just if you have to use one do so with care., As your next post maybe to ask where the best LBS is to fix said knackered bearings :-)
