CeraBike WAXLUBE LUBRICANT Wax Based

CeraBike WAXLUBE is a wax-based chain lubricant that stands out due to its unique formulation. It contains PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene), graphite, and ceramic particles a combination designed to provide superior lubrication while minimizing friction and wear. The product comes in a 130ml bottle with an applicator nozzle for precise application directly onto the bicycle chain. This design ensures minimal waste and ease of use even during on-the-go maintenance. The wax base is a key feature, offering several benefits over traditional oil-based lubricants:

• Reduced Dirt Attraction: Wax repels dirt and grime effectively, keeping your chain cleaner for longer periods compared to oily alternatives.
• Smoother Ride: The PTFE in WAXLUBE provides exceptional lubricity, resulting in a smoother and quieter ride.
• Longer Chain Life: Less friction means less wear on the chain links, extending its lifespan significantly.

The durability of CeraBike WAXLUBE is impressive. Once applied correctly, it can last for hundreds of miles or even an entire season depending on riding conditions and maintenance frequency. The wax coating creates a protective barrier around each link, shielding them from moisture and contaminants that can accelerate wear. However, like all lubricants, WAXLUBE needs to be reapplied periodically typically every 500-1000km (300-600 miles) or after heavy rain or wet conditions. The performance of CeraBike WAXLUBE is exceptional. The ceramic particles in the formula further reduce friction, leading to improved efficiency and faster speeds. Cyclists who use WAXLUBE often report a noticeable improvement in pedaling feel and overall bike responsiveness. Furthermore, the low-friction properties make it an excellent choice for both road and mountain bikes where every watt counts.

Applying CeraBike WAXLUBE is straightforward. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Clean Your Chain: Before applying any lubricant, thoroughly clean your chain using degreaser or specialized bike cleaner. A dirty chain will prevent the wax from adhering properly and reduce its effectiveness.
2. Dry Your Chain: Ensure that your chain is completely dry before proceeding. Moisture can dilute the wax and affect its performance.
3. Apply CeraBike WAXLUBE: Squeeze a small amount of lubricant onto each link, working it into the rollers with a cloth or applicator brush. Avoid over-applying as this can attract more dirt.
4. Buff Excess Wax: After applying WAXLUBE, buff away any excess wax from the chain using a clean, dry cloth to prevent buildup and grime attraction.
5. Test Ride & Adjust: Take your bike for a short test ride and adjust the lubrication if necessary. For optimal results, it's recommended that you apply CeraBike WAXLUBE after every bath or whenever your chain starts to feel stiff. Its also wise to reapply before long rides or races where peak performance is crucial.

One of the standout features of CeraBike WAXLUBE is its ease of use and minimal maintenance requirements compared to traditional oil-based lubricants. The applicator nozzle allows for precise application, minimizing waste and mess. Moreover, because wax repels dirt effectively, cleaning your chain becomes less frequent and easier when it's finally needed. However, a small drawback is that reapplication can be slightly more involved than with standard oils. Youll need to clean the chain thoroughly before reapplying WAXLUBE, which adds an extra step to your maintenance routine. But considering its superior performance and longevity, most cyclists find this minor inconvenience well worth it.

User reviews for CeraBike WAXLUBE are overwhelmingly positive. Many users praise its durability, smoothness, and cleanliness compared to other lubricants they've tried. Heres a summary of common feedback:

• Durability: Users consistently report that WAXLUBE lasts significantly longer than conventional oil-based chain lubes.

If you're looking for a high-performance, low-maintenance chain lubricant that offers exceptional durability and cleanliness, then CeraBike WAXLUBE Wax Based is an excellent choice. Its unique wax formulation with PTFE, graphite, and ceramic particles delivers unparalleled lubrication while minimizing friction and wear on your bikes drivetrain.

Waxlube offers several benefits over oil-based lubricants. It is much cleaner less grime attracts to the chain, so you'll need to wash your bike less often. It provides longer lasting lubrication due to its wax base and ceramic content. Also, it reduces noise significantly as there are no liquid droplets that cause friction against other parts of the drivetrain.

Waxlube is water-repellent, which means it can handle rain better than oil-based lubricants. However, for heavy or prolonged exposure to water, consider reapplication after riding through a downpour. It's still essential to dry your chain thoroughly before applying more Waxlube.

Yes! CeraBike Waxlube is compatible with almost any bicycle drivetrain including road bikes, mountain bikes, gravel bikes and even e-bikes. It can be used on steel, aluminum or carbon fiber chains. However, it's not recommended for single speed drivetrains as the wax may build up around the cog and create shifting issues.

The frequency of application depends on your riding conditions. For regular urban commuting in dry weather, applying Waxlube every 200-300 miles is recommended. If you ride frequently in wet or dusty conditions, consider reapplication after 100-200 miles.

The easiest method is to use a dropper bottle and squeeze Waxlube onto each link of your chain while pedaling backwards. Alternatively, you can soak your chain in Waxlube overnight for maximum penetration, then wipe off any excess with a clean rag. Always ensure the chain is completely dry before applying Waxlube.

While CeraBike Waxlube is primarily designed for bicycle chains, it can also be applied to your derailleur pivots and jockey wheels to reduce friction and improve shifting performance. However, avoid using it on brake rotors or pads as this could affect braking efficiency.
