What makes Squirt Lube unique?
100% wax-based, no oil
Squirt uses a wax and water emulsion instead of traditional oil. This ensures that:
- No dirt sticks to the chain
- The chain stays clean for a long time
- You need to reapply less often
- Significantly reduces wear on your chain and sprockets
Environmentally friendly and biodegradable
Squirt Lube is completely biodegradable and contains no harmful solvents or petrochemicals. Ideal for environmentally conscious cyclists.
All-conditions chain wax
Whether you're riding in wet, muddy conditions or dry, dusty conditions, Squirt continues to perform. The wax layer adheres perfectly to the chain links, forming a durable, protective coating.
No more black chain
Because Squirt doesn't contain any oil, it doesn't create that nasty, black chain sludge. Your chain stays visibly clean – perfect for anyone who likes to keep their bike in top condition.
Easy to use
Once applied correctly, Squirt lasts a long time. You don't have to constantly re-lube your chain – perfect for long rides, races, or bikepacking.
