I don't know if it's true for wool cycling gear, but I from what I learned (I knit) that one should use just regular (not baby) shampoo on wool, because baby shampoo is supposed to be gentle on skin, whereas regular shampoo is supposed to be gentle on hair, which is essentially what wool is. *shrugs*
