Does Bike Chain Lube Work Below Freezing?
Posted by Trevor Barrett on
What is low-temperature chain lube?
Low-temperature chain lube is formulated to maintain a suitable consistency in conditions where standard wax may harden.
Squirt Low Temperature Chain Lube is based on Squirt’s standard Long Lasting Chain Lube but contains a wax modifier designed for temperatures from approximately -18°C to 0°C.
It provides the clean-running benefits of a wax-based lubricant while continuing to lubricate effectively in sub-zero conditions. Because the lubricant dries on the chain, it also avoids the oily build-up that can attract dirt and create an abrasive paste around the drivetrain.
