Ceramic Wax Bicycle Chain Lube – Advanced Wax-Based Lubricant with Ceramic Boron Nitride for Smooth Performance in Dry Conditions

Prior to this my favorite chain lube was C3 Ceramic from Muc-Off. It works wonders, but like all wet lubes, it tends to attract dirt and grime, necessitating frequent chain cleaning (and leaving that annoying chain tattoo on your right calf - you know the one!). I had been reading about the advantages of wax-based lubes so I decided to give this ceramic lube a try. I'm a pretty serious road cyclist so I went all-in and cleaned my chain and cassette with an ultrasonic cleaner and Muc-Off drivetrain cleaner (the yellow-green one is great!), then again with hot water to get all the cleaner off, then applied the Finish Line wax and let it dry. Twice. I went cycling the next day and was surprised at the dry feel of the chain, the complete lack of chain noise, and the number of PRs that I sent on Strava segments that I've ridden literally 100+ times. I've been using Finish Line ceramic wax for several weeks now and I don't think I'll ever go back to a non-wax chain lube. My drivetrain stays much cleaner now and the slight performance gain is undeniable, as proven by my Strava numbers. This particular one is also quite affordable, compared to UFO, Silca and other brands that are essentially the same but cost 4X more. Give this lube a try!

You can feel the difference immediately. Good value and helps lower resistance right away.

After I thoroughly removed the factory chain preservative / lube using denatured alcohol and letting it dry. I applied this lube, after shaking the bottle vigorously, to each individual link. I let it dry and did it again. This wax based treatment does a very good job of keeping the chain working smoothly, but more importantly it attracts almost no dirt or grime. I ride a mtb in wet conditions. I tend to just wipe the chain down with a rag, and apply this again every 50 miles or so and am pleased with the product. It's not the cheapest, but I have subsequently bought a second bottle because it works so well.

I really like this wax. It works great keeping my chain running smooth and quiet. I've used it exclusively for months now and the quality is very good. My only complaint is that I've found that I need to constantly lube the chain. With other lubes I've used once every couple of rides was good to keep things nice and smooth. With this wax I have found that I need to apply before every single ride. This is most likely just a function of using wax over a different type of lube but it is definitely worth noting. For application I've found that the earlier you put it on prior to riding the better. I typically try to apply the wax the night before I am going to ride. In addition you don't really need to wipe anything off after applying it to the chain (this is has just been my experience and preference with this product). I don't think that this is a good solution for every rider, for me it is great and I like the way it works and don't mind the frequent application. I know a lot of people have a strong preference for different types of lubes, but this is worth checking out. One last note, prior to the first application I would give the chain and drive train a VERY extensive cleaning. If you don't you'll likely get a black waxy buildup which will gum up the works a bit.

Some wax lubricants are fake and never dry, but this wax lubricant contains real wax, dries completely after 24 hours, and coats the chain surface. Even after 7 days of rain, there was no rust; the picture shows only a small amount of rust on one link, which is sufficient proof that this is a genuine rust-preventive lubricant.

This is an excellent product! I used it on my new Trek DS1 that I purchased about a month ago. This was the very first time cleaning and lubricating the chain. The picture and video both illustrate the chain’s condition after a 10-mile bike ride along streets and sidewalks with multiple patches of sand. Obviously, it’s very clean! The viscosity is a little thin so please careful during your application process. It’s too good to waste a single drop! Jay (Wilmington, NC)

ロードバイクの大会前の調整はコレが一番だ。汚れも少ない。

最初に断っておくと、これは絶対的な潤滑性を謳った商品ではないです 速さや耐久性を求める人には向きません あくまでも『ドライでありながら限界まで高い潤滑性を備えた商品』と言えるでしょう 色々な商品を試しましたが、絶対的な潤滑性なら、そりゃあウェットに軍配が上がります でもですね、ウェットはすぐ汚れるんですよ 特にグラベルなんか、チェーンはもとよりスプロケにオイルとホコリが混ざってペースト状になった汚れがどんどん蓄積されていきます 掃除面倒くさいです 足が触れたりすると、魚拓のようにチェーン拓が付きます この商品は、ドライ系の中でも最もドライだと思います 施工して拭き取れば、触ってもサラサラで、油っ気は殆どありません 当然汚れづらいです、自転車が汚れないのは実に快適です それでいて中々の潤滑性です、静かでシフトもスパスパとキマります 趣味の輪行車中泊で自転車の隣で寝ても安心です 耐久性はまあ…乗る度に施工(あえて給油とは言わない)した方がいいかもしれませんが、私は150〜200キロ毎くらいですかね 耐久性を上げるには、チェーンを外してよく洗浄したのち、ベルハンマーを給油して、その後ベタつきが無くなるまでパーツクリーナーで洗浄してから施工すると良いでしょう チェーン内部に入ったベルハンマーはパーツクリーナーくらいでは取れませんから 欠点を申しますと お値段少々お高め 冬場は固まるので温めてから使う必要がある 防錆性は弱い、夏場に汗が付着したりするとすぐ錆びる などですかね まあ、私は今後はこれ一択でいきます

昔から色々使って来ましたが結局ここに落ち着きました。汚れも少なくて洗浄でも問題なく取れます。

Macht einen guten Job auf der Kette meines Zwift-Rides. Läuft ruhig, krümelt nicht, in Ordnung.
