Clean Ride is Cycling's Only Self-Cleaning Lubricant. Clean Ride literally sheds dirt and grime while you ride, keeping your bike running smoothly.
Clean Ride sets up as a dry wax film. There is no oily film to attract abrasive contaminants, so your chain and gears will perform better and last 2 to 3 times longer.Clean Ride's self-cleaning action is activated by any dirt, grit or grime that finds it's way onto your chain or parts. Small particles of the outer wax structure will flake off, taking the dirt, grime or grit with it and begins the cycle of 'self-cleaning'.
Adequate lubrication allows smooth continuous operation of equipment, with only mild wear, and without excessive stresses or seizures at bearings. When lubrication breaks down, metal or other components can rub destructively over each other, causing destructive damage, heat, and premature avoidable failure. The right lubricant will keep your bike working properly for much longer and will save you a heap of money in the long run. You'll need a thin, dry lube for the cables and pivots of your brakes and gears. This will resist water and won't attract dirt. Chains require something heavier and will use different lubes for the different seasons. In the summer, a White Lightning type lube will keep them clean and protected but wetter weather means you'll need a more tenacious alternative.
In 1994, Paul Maples, a research chemist and cyclist invented White Lightning. Although White Lightning was developed to keep bicycle chains clean, users soon found that it worked on almost all bicycle parts. Since its introduction, White Lightning has quickly gained broad acceptance. Reader surveys for leading US cycling magazines rate White Lightning as the industry's most popular lubricant. Such a rapid growth in popularity is without precedent and speaks to the product's unique technology. Four U.S. Patents have been awarded to Paul Maples for his "Self-Cleaning Technology." With Paul's continued R&D leadership, White Lightning believes that its self-cleaning lubricants will ultimately change the way people maintain high-tech mechanical devices.
