SILCA Secret Chain Blend - Hot Melt Wax

Works really well, the chain feels very responsive to gear shifts and once the chain "broke in" around 5km it really did feel like the bike didn't require as much effort to pedal.

I’ve been using Super Secret wax for years. I have tried other waxes, they’re fine but this is the one I prefer.

Silica chain wax - a revelation. People have been raving to me about waxing chains for years, but it wasn’t until a mechanic servicing my bike in Jakarta unexpectedly waxed my chain that I really appreciated the difference it made. All of a sudden the whole drive train just felt smooth and fast. The real game changer, though, was getting Silca’s home chain waxing kit. Being able to wax chains myself with minimal fuss has made it all accessible. My initial attempt took more than an hour. Now I’ve got it down to around 30-40 minutes, which is the minimum time needed to melt and apply the wax. Combine the waxing with giving the chain a quick treatment after each ride and it’s been all smooth since.
