Muc-Off 1105US E-Bike Wet Chain Lube, 50 Millilitres - Premium Electric Bike Chain Lubricant With UV Tracer Dye - Formulated For Wet Weather Conditions

Product Information

Formulated with our unique eBike specific lubricity pack to handle the higher torque loads of an eBike drivetrain. It forms a stable tribofilm, which is important to achieve the improved tribological performance needed from an ebike-specific lube. The chain can become dry and rusty, resulting in a stiff ride, increased noise, and an increased risk of damage or breakage.

A minor alteration from our world renowned Tungsten All Weather Lube to cope with higher torque levels from E-Bikes. Finish Line’s 1-Step Cleaner and Lubricant contains a powerful and effective cleaning agent which removes dirt and grime while lubricating and protecting your chain.

Without lube, dirt and grime can build up on the chain, which can cause friction and wear out the parts faster. So this isn’t a lube you can pop on a few hours before a ride – if you do, it will just fling off the chain as it spins around the drivetrain, coating your bike and leaving little wax to do the job.

Aside from your bike looking better when clean, its a good opportunity to get up close to the bike and inspect it for wear and tear and any previously unnoticed damage. Road cyclists tend to be the fussiest bunch when it comes to cleanliness but if riding on the road in the summer, you could go all season with little more than a bit of dust. MTB rides in Africa mostly deal with dry, dusty conditions – perfect for a wax lube, where the dust simply won’t adhere, unlike oil lubes where it almost instantly turns into a grinding paste. There’s no way I or any other journalist can quantify the friction or wear reduction benefits of any lube in such a short distance, or indeed outside of a lab with replicable protocols. I do have a fresh bottle of wet weather muc off chain lube but been told it will attract all the dirt and grime while riding and will also make chain extremely dirty and black.Lubricants, ranging from wet to dry formulas, optimise performance by reducing friction and repelling moisture, crucial for chain and gear longevity. Not only is it faster, but it’s also more durable, creating an atomic layer on the surface of the chain to reduce wear of the drivetrain and protect moving components. Traditionally, you switch to dry lube at this point, only to have a wet spell or a lingering old puddle render your chain dry as a bone.

Chain lube will help keep dirt and dust from sticking to the chain and working its way into the links and cogs, which can cause damage and decrease performance. Its convenient spray-on applicator makes it easy to use, and this premium lubricant helps preserve and extend the life of your bike chain.

As the lubricant is totally dry, it completely stops dirt building up into a grinding paste unlike all other conventional lubricants. It offers increased levels of durability and wear resistance as well as excellent lubrication properties.

We can introduce you to a limited number of finance providers and do not charge fees for our Consumer Credit services. I think the responses to this thread demonstrate that there's no one right answer, it depends entirely on what your prevailing riding conditions are. Once applied it penetrates all parts of the chain before setting to a completely dry lubricating layer which is resistant to water and dirt ingress. I think the OP needs to read through all the advice and recommendations and figure out which ones align most closely with his/hers own local conditions and take it from there.ZFC have yet to publish their findings of that lube and haven’t tested this Squirt e-bike wax either, so a head to head comparison in the rigid testing of their lab isn’t possible yet. Start by applying the lube to one side of the chain and then carefully move along the length of the chain while wiping off excess lube with a cloth or rag.
