Description of Smoove Universal Chain Lube 1 bottle 125ml
Smoove is a revolutionary paraffin wax that needs no introduction. In addition to impressive performance, it allows you to keep the chain clean and dry during operation.
An all-purpose functional chain lubricant suitable for all riding conditions. Dry, wet, muddy or sunny - the lube will work great, keeping the chain lubricated.
The use of Smoove paraffin wax reduces chain wear, which means less stress on the cassette, derailleur and chainrings.
Also, paraffin grease stays on the chain longer than other bicycle lubricants and does not catch pounds of dust and dirt. If you want more from your favorite bike components, choose Smoove.
100% Biodegradable and Solvent FreeLong LifeLong Life Drivetrain Clean Designed in South AfricaRecommended Use: 1) Apply Smoove only to a clean and dry chain. It is better to clean the chain with a special solution (degreaser) 2) For maximum efficiency, lubricate all parts of the chain: external and internal links, pins 3) Do not wipe the chain after applying the lubricant, let it dry - the water will evaporate and the chain will be evenly covered with paraffin 4) If you applied too much lubricant, then paraffin can roll on the derailleur rollers or cassette stars - it can be removed in any convenient way. If you run more than 150-200 km after riding in the rain, the lubricant continues to work inside, but the outer links may lose the paraffin film. After riding in these conditions, we recommend drying and blowing the chain to avoid rust.
Pros
- Low consumption A clean chain and the whole system, and therefore for such comfort, it is worth any money (it's like switching from a manual pump to an electric one). According to user reviews, the consumption is less than that of Squirt and it is slightly better in other parameters (but for now I only use this one, I can’t compare them myself yet)
Cons
- It does not penetrate as fast as usual, you have to either shake the chain or roll the rollers with your fingers to get inside the rollers Little information on how to apply and after how many km It is necessary to flush the system with the same white spirit before switching to paraffin lubricants. At first there was a surprise how this drop does not penetrate, but if the roller is twisted, it is perfectly absorbed inside. I think it goes without saying that this lubricant is not suitable for riding in streams and in the rain.
