Description of Tru Tension BananaSlip Tungsten Weather

Biodegradable - no nasty solvents, making it kind to you and the environment while being strong enough to strip back contaminants and dirt while you ride. Tungsten infused - originally developed for space projects as a lubricant due to it having a lower coefficient of friction compared with Ceramics, Teflon and Graphite, as well as being more durable. Wet Weather durability - creates an atomic layer on the surface of the chain to reduce wear of the drivetrain and protect moving components even in wet weather. Extensive endurance - smooths out the surface of the metal to minimise surface imperfections, resulting in up to 40% less friction than Ceramics, up to 50% less than Teflon, and up to 60% less than Graphite. Compatible - Ideal for road and off-road riding, as well as on shifters, pedals and derailleurs.

Suppleness and Less Drag

I have used this excellent lube on my fastest road bike for some time. I find it extremely smooth and slippery and my shifts feel better. I've experimented with waiting 160 miles before re-lube, but personally I find that re-application a little earlier works better. I wipe the chain after every ride to remove accumulated black road rubber, but if I don't do it right away it doesn't seem to affect performance. I really see the benefit of my speed with less effort using this excellent lube.

Pros
  • Tungsten Filled Tungsten - originally developed for space projects as a lube due to lower coefficient of friction compared to ceramic, teflon and graphite and also more durable
Cons
  • Some minor things
