So far this has worked fabulous.

I have started to wax all of my chains. After about 300 miles my chains need some new lube. I drip this lube onto each link, work it into the chain a bit, and let it stand overnight and am good to go for at least the next 200 miles.

Thank you for your feedback.

The Best!

Been using this for several years, it has no rival IMO. Almost as good as waxing.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great lube!!!

I cleaned my chain per video and submerged the chain for thirty minutes. Wiped off excess and rode 30 miles. Hardly any road grime. I rode 200 more miles and chain and gears are clean; however I always wipe chain before any ride but I noticed very little grime. Chainrings and derailleur chain wheels are clean. Very happy with product.

Thank you for your feedback.

Really good stuff

If you're willing to take the wax plunge, as it were, this is what you want. Long-time roadie and chain has never run smoother or quieter.

Incredible

Of all the chain products I've used over the years I've yet to find one that works as good as this one. Highly recommended. Just follow the instructional videos.

Cleaned my chain the way the video showed and applied this lube according to video instructions. My drivetrain and chain have never been quieter and smoother feeling, more efficient.

Extending hot wax intervals

After reading ZFC data on low wear on drive train components with Silca wax and watching Silca Velo videos, made the switch to hot wax on MTB, gravel and 4 road bikes. Best results in my 50 years of riding. Used Squirt last 6 years which was improvement over Progold. Lots of mud on MTB here, wash with Silca cleaner, 5ml in bucket and scrub the bike, dry the chain with microfiber. After 5 winter rides have had no sqeaks, or rust, and added some of the SSSCL to the chain. Had tried using it on road bike chain and it seemed to run off, so added two M6 nuts and shook for 20-30 seconds, then warmed bottle in a cup of hot water; it went on the freshly dried MTB chain very well using the backpedal and drip onto chain on largest cog method. No need to drip on each link... Has dried well and filled in the gaps and super smooth running. This stuff is great.

Thank you for your feedback.

Amazing Stuff

I use this on road and mountain bikes, and it's awesome. Definitely notice the reduced watts, super quiet, and stays clean. I reapply it about every 250-300 miles. Is it an effort to apply? A bit, but its absolutely worth it.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best non-hot wax lube, does not attract grime as some say

I can only surmise those saying their chain gets dirtier with this lube are not doing proper prep and application. When done correctly with a new chain, maintenance if so easy and the drive train function is excellent. After each ride, wipe down the chain, chain rings and give the cassette a quick pass with a rag. I get roughly 200 - 250 miles then reapply, usually when i wash my bike. I use Silca brake and drive train cleaner on the chain, rings, cassette, pulley wheels, brakes. That gets the drive train sparkling while leaving the wax lube in place. I then reapply as per the Silca video (largest cassette cog, big chain ring, applying at apex of rear cog when at max separation), leave it overnight, and good to go. Super quiet and smooth. There will be some splatter at first until you get it down as to the application -- one drop per pin, run the chain through your fingers, let it completely dry). If there is any, it wipes off easily. Used in combo with new chain stripping/cleaning, initial soak, then wipe/wash and reapply, and you are golden.

Thank you for your feedback.
