  • 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.

  • While this wax type of product is best-in-class for both durability and friction, regardless of conditions, the application process is more involved than most people would like. Drip lubes may not perform quite as well, but their ease-of-use will still make them a better choice if you don’t have a lot of time on their hands. For those riders, Kerin recommends Silca NFS.

    “Silca NFS lube is the pick of the bunch” he said. “[It’s the] longest-lasting by far of the drip lubes I’ve tested.”
