Bike Care

A clean, well-lubricated drivetrain shifts better and lasts longer. The Ballistol bike range covers each step.

Clean, lube, protect

• Clean: foam bicycle cleaner for the whole bike and chain cleaner to strip old lube.
• Lube: Bike X Lube for all seasons, ceramic chain oil for extreme conditions, and e-bike chain oil for motor-assisted drivetrains.
• Protect: DryLube PTFE spray for forks, dampers and dropper posts.

In wet UK weather, re-lube after every few rides and always after washing the bike.

Choosing a bike chain lube

For wet UK riding, a wet bike lube spray such as Bike X Lube stays on the chain through rain. For dry roads and dusty trails, DryLube PTFE keeps the chain clean. Ceramic Chain Oil lasts longest between applications, and E-Bike Chain Oil is made for the torque of electric bikes.

Want it all in one go? See our ready-made bike kits. Whatever you use, clean the chain first with Chain Cleaner, as fresh lube on a gritty chain just makes grinding paste. More: choosing a bike chain lubricant and where to grease a bike.
