Clean Chain is a revolutionary, powerful degreasing gel. Apply Clean Chain like a lubricant, and ride around for a couple of minutes. Run your chain through a dry rag, and then a wet rag or brush. Finally rinse the chain thoroughly with water, for a clean chain. Clean Chain is totally biodegradable, and safe for you and aquatic life. A 100 ml bottle of Clean Chain can also be mixed with 900ml of water to make a whole 1 litre bottle of Green Clean bike cleaner. Clean Chain contains no petrochemicals and is 100% natural, using the power of citrus extracts and coconut oil.

With Diamond Hard Tech one more revolutionary technology has been developed. DHT provides the solidest hardened base with extreme hardness performance and self-lubrication feature. To balance the durability of chain with other derailleur components is an essential task for derailleur parts makers. DHT hardened treatment does not affect the worn condition of cassettes and chainwheel and that friction-free lubrication helps shield away from the strain and wear on the drivetrain components. Thanks to the excellent performance in anti-elongation, chain life has greatly increased based on the DHT advanced durability enhancing treatment. DHT allows TAYA high-end products to compare with the branded chain products in the market with splendid performance in durability.
This chain tensioner kit includes genuine Nukeproof replacement tensioners for the Nukeproof Solum. Featuring a pair for drive and non-drive side, this set is needed to maintain the correct alignment of the rear hubs and chain tension in the Solum frame's single-speed horizonal drop-outs. These tensioners are specifically produced for the Nukeproof Solum and are not cross-compatible with other models and brands.
When applied to the chain, the carrier quickly "searches" its way in between all the pins and rollers of the chain which is where it is needed the most. At this point when the optimum penetration of the chain has been achieved relative to the amount of lube applied at that time, the carrier evaporates, leaving behind the lubricating element which is enclosed in a thin, dry to the touch film which does not allow loose, dry and lightweight contaminants to stick to it. This results in a cleaner and quieter chain. Directions: For top performance, apply to a degreased chain and dry chain. Un-screw nozzle and pierce security seal. Re-attach nozzle and take care to only open the flow valve a very small amount to avoid over application. Then rest the tip of the nozzle on the rollers of the chain and whilst slowly back pedalling the cranks for 2 complete revolutions, gently squeeze the bottle to apply a thin stream of Chain Juice Dry to the chain. HINT! At this point, if it is dripping on the floor you are applying it too quickly!! Because of the way in which Chain Juice Dry works it is best to apply the lube in 2 - 4 thin layers leaving a few minutes between each layer for the penetration and evaporation process to take place.
This high-performance chain cleaner thoroughly cleans all chain speeds, from single speed all the way up to 10, 11, 12 and 13-Speed chains. If you want to clean the chain in a thorough way and reduce the amount of degreasing liquid used, Mangiacatena is the one for you. It is the first chain cleaner equipped with lamellar elements at both ends, so that the chain can be cleaned by moving it in both directions, very useful also for electric bikes (E-Bikes). Equipped with six rotating brushes and a sturdy handle. Chain Cleaning with Minimum Waste There is nothing wrong with cleaning the chain with the classic brush and solvent liquid in a tin. In that way, however, a lot of solvents are wasted without getting to deep cleaning, unless you want to disassemble the chain and immerse it in the solvent. To avoid disassembly and clean in depth, we have developed Mangiacatena: the best cleaning with the least amount of solvent, in a short time, leaving the chain on the bike. Please Note: Reducing the amount of solvent used doesn’t mean that cleaning takes place without getting dirty. Better to protect the floor with a cloth or work outside. Deep Cleaning Formula The chain runs straight inside Mangiacatena, squeezed at both ends between lamellar plastic (PE) elements with the task of keeping as much solvent inside as possible. The washing is performed by six rotating brushes, continuously soaked in the cleaning liquid, which actively removes dirt on each side, pushing the solvent inside the chain. Instructions for Use: Open Mangiacatena by removing the cover and positioning the lower part of Mangiacatena on the bottom span of the chain Mount the cover making sure it’s perfectly aligned with the lower part, then slide the locking handle in place until it is fully engaged Add the degreasing liquid through the upper holes (it is recommended to use Effetto Mariposa Allpine Extra) until the lower tank is full to the “FILL” level line Keeping Mangiacatena in position with the side handle, pedal backwards for at least 10 full revolutions Note: the two lamellar elements at both ends reduce the waste of solvent, but slow down the sliding of the chain at least in the initial phase… so don't be afraid, just hold the Mangiacatena firmly Note: thanks to the lamellar elements, Mangiacatena allows - without wasting solvent - to pedal in both directions. To do this, it is recommended to keep the rear wheel of the bicycle off the ground (using a workshop stand or other support) It is now possible to move Mangiacatena: release the side locking handle by depressing the thumb lever and remove it, open the cover, disassemble Mangiacatena from the lower span of the chain and position it, as already described, on the upper span of the chain, for a second cleaning step. Add more degreaser if necessary Keeping Mangiacatena in position using the side handle, pedal backwards for at least 10 full revolutions Disassemble Mangiacatena and empty the liquid contained inside (dispose of in accordance with the law if you use non-biodegradable degreasers or lubricants) Water rinse: mount Mangiacatena on the lower span of the chain, add water through the top holes and make at least 10 full revolutions Disassemble Mangiacatena and empty the liquid contained inside (dispose of it in accordance with the law if you use non-biodegradable degreasers or lubricants). Repeat from point 8 until perfect rinsing. In the end, rinse Mangiacatena with water and allow to air dry Dry the chain (rag, compressed air) and do not forget to lubricate it (we recommend our ecological Flowerpower Wax lubricant) Effetto Mariposa has selected Mangiacatena materials and construction for long life. They also provide a complete set of replacement brushes, Mangiacatena Replacement Kit, to replace what you wear without having to throw everything away. They have also chosen to use lamellar PE elements at both ends, instead of the more common sponges, for their greater durability and resistance For Single-Speed Transmissions and 5 to 13 Speed Chains The chain runs straight inside Mangiacatena, instead of following a tortuous path, making it also suitable for single-speed transmissions (for a chain with a maximum width of 9 mm). No problem for traditional 5 to 13 speed chains.
KMC X-Series Regarding the specific characteristics of Shimano, SRAM and Campagnolo systems, KMC has developed a series that meets the highest demands. This premium model combines the well-known high quality of the X series combined with the cool look of the Neo Chrome surface coating. The extremely precisely manufactured and dynamically chamfered edges of the plates ensure perfect shifting behaviour and maximum smoothness. X11 11 Speed Bike Chain The Non-Directional design of this chain allows maximum compatibility. The X-Bridge system on its outer plates is configured with precisely articulated angles for quicker and smoother gear shifting and quieter riding.
Added torque can put a lot of strain through your chain and can cause premature wear, but this model easily stands up to the extra torque. It also includes a Connex link for easy installation.
Best for use in dry, dusty or damp conditions, this wax chain lube increases drivetrain life by reducing metal-on-metal contact. Chain Juice Wax is the secret to sublime shifting. It’s best used alongside short sleeves, sunglasses and blue skies but won’t let you down when the trails turn to mush. Forget what you know about wax lubes, Juice Lubes have got this one nailed. Wax takes a little more effort to apply than your normal lube but once on it penetrates deep into your chain for the smoothest, quietest, longest-lasting lube around.
All the benefits, none of the hassle. The Silca Super Secret Chain Lube combines the speed and silent running of a hot-melt wax-dipper chain to a drip applied wax lubricant. The Secret Chain Lube also utilises the world’s fastest, most lubricious additive, nano-scale Tungsten Disulfide for maximum drive chain performance. The Super Secret Chain Lube started as a project to develop the fastest hot-melt wax lubricant in early 2019. Josh Poertner, CEO of Silca, has been recommending hot melt wax and helping pro cyclists and triathletes wax chains for years and he wanted to bring the performance advantages to Silca customers too. The project took a major turn from the world of IndyCar when Poertner was introduced to a group who had developed a technology to put micro-scale wax powders into quick-drying solutions that form a coating that is indiscernible from hot melt dipping in crockpots. The combination of air-drying liquid wax and Tungsten Disulfide quickly proved to beat all currently available hot melt waxes in friction testing while being much faster to apply. The nanoplatelets of WS2 (Tungsten Disulfide) in the Super Secret Chain lube has less than 1/3 the dynamic coefficient friction of PTFE and ¼ that of Molybdenum Disulfide (MoS2). The lube formula is also environmentally friendly, utilising 4 different types of wax and mild alcohol to act as a carrier.
An all conditions wet lube and the first of the Green Oil range. Developed after Simon Nash the founder fo Green Oil went through the river Quaggy and wanted a green lube. Unlike petrochemical alternatives, Green Oil chain lube doesn’t contain PTFE (aka Teflon) or any petrochemicals to pollute your workshop, your skin, or any waterways you might ride through! Green Oil now contains N-Toc, and additive for even longer performance on the chain.
