THE ROADMAN VERDICT.
A durable synthetic lube made for road, gravel, commuting and mountain biking in changing conditions.
Why I recommend it
One dependable bottle is often better than a shelf of specialist lubes. This penetrates the rollers, resists water and uses a pipette so it is easy to apply without flooding the drivetrain.
Who it is for
Year-round riders who want a straightforward lube for mixed weather and regular maintenance.
Who should skip it
Wax devotees, riders chasing the absolute lowest drivetrain friction, or anyone who only rides in consistently dry conditions.
What it gets right
- Works in wet and dry conditions
- Pipette makes accurate application easy
- Helps reduce friction and shifting noise
- Suitable for road, gravel, MTB and commuting
Where it falls short
- Clean and dry the chain before application
- Excess lube must be wiped away
- Specialist wet or dry lubes may suit extreme conditions better
