Rock n' Roll Gold's formulation goes deep down into the chain and traps any dirt. Then, with the energy of the chain freewheeling backwards, the dirt and grit floats to the surface so you can wipe it all off, leaving a new and clean application of lube inside the chain, right where it's needed. The lube down inside the chain creates a protective membrane to seal out dirt and moisture from the moving parts of the chain. As well as holding in place the best lube on the planet, for super smooth shifting and pedaling and longer chain life.

For best results, allow your chain to sit a few hours or lube the night before. However, if right after lubing, you have to ride, you have to ride, so go for it. Giving the lube a chance to set gives the lube a bit more life by allowing the protective membrane to fully set-up. Remember, to wipe off you chain after riding regardless if you're going to re-lube or not. This keeps the chain clean and looking great!

Clean Ride literally sheds dirt & grime while you ride, keeping your bike running smoothly.  The self-cleaning action is activated by any dirt, grit or grime that finds its way onto your chain or parts. Small particles of the outer wax structure will flake off, taking the dirt, grime or grit with it. Clean Ride is a unique, wax-based lubricant, so it is important to start with a clean chain.

• Sets up as a dry wax film with no oily film to attract abrasive contaminants
• The dirtier the ride, the more active the shedding action.
• Your chain and gears will perform better and last 2 to 3 times longer.
• When Clean Ride is used regularly and properly, you'll rarely have to clean your chain again. So, while your buddies are cleaning their chains, you'll be applying a fresh shot of Clean Ride and heading out for yet another great ride!
• For maximum self-cleaning benefits, allow lube to fully dry (15-30 minutes).
• Note: For optimum 'self-cleaning' performance, do not mix Clean Ride with oil based lubricants. So to this extent, Clean Ride will require more frequent re-application after dirtier rides.
• 4 oz bottle

You’ll have a clean chain in under 20 seconds!

This is the whole system. You got the Cyclone Chain Scrubber, you got the gear brush and, that chain degreaser is goning to get that chain shiny and shifting smoothly. Simple, effective, and ready to clean

It's going to clean that chain. Put it in the two ends, fill it with the soap and run it through while holding the handle. This is the next best thing to doing it by hand with a brush and bucket of water. Snap those clamps shut and fill it to the fill line. Pedal at least 30 revolutions for a clean chain!

A clean bike looks great, performs better, lasts longer, and is easier to maintain. Now with the BCB-4 Bike Cleaning Brush Set, having a clean bike is easier than ever. “Sure Grip” dual density handles insure a positive grip even with wet hands. The BCB-4 contains four brushes, each specially designed for a specific cleaning purpose:

• The ""Y" brush is for large tube and tires. It will wrap around these to clean. The wire can also be bent to different shapes for different size tire and tube shapes.
• The frame cleaning sponge brush is a combination scrubbing sponge and bristle bush. Very useful between spokes on the rim. Also good for rotors and under the headset, and under the fork.
• Tapered detail brush, also called a "bottle brush" is useful for cleaning hub centers and narrow areas, such as under front derailleurs, behind brakes, etc.
• The GSC-1 gear brush is for rear derailleur pulleys, rear cogs and any general degreasing. The comb section is for cleaning between cogs where the bristles cannot reach.

An oil change should be carried out annually or at least every 5000km. By performing this process, it ensures that there will always be enough oil in the hub regardless of oil loss (due to sweat oil) and that any penetrated water will be rinsed out. For a problem-free oil change we recommend the use of the Rohloff oil change kit, which includes 25ml of cleaning oil in a 50ml bottle, 25ml of all seasons oil, an oil filling tube and a drain screw with new seal.
