  • Has anyone used the Silca super secret wax lube that’s apparently as good as proper hot waxing? Does it actually do what it says on the tin or is it a load of bollox?

    I’m wanting to give hot waxing a go but I also can’t be arsed with all the effort.
    The Silca stuff is wildly expensive but if it avoids all the faff of waxing then I think I could stomach the price.

  • as good as proper hot waxing

    That will never be the case though, will it? How can a drip-on applied lube possibly permeate the tiny gaps as well as a hot soaking of a chain (even in the same stuff)?

    What does that Aussie chain waxing nerd say about it?

    Aye, I suppose there’s just no getting around it really.
    I’ve got some absolute black wax ready to try but I’ve yet to find the motivation to use it.

    Is there a cheap forum approved ultrasonic cleaner? They all look like much of a muchness
