Why Squirt?
Maybe you have a bicycle with a black gunky oily chain.
You are forgiven for this. You`ve applied lube, its become old and gunky and is
attracting all sort of grit to it wearing your chain and sprockets prematurely.
Now you have to buy degreaser and clean it all before applying more lube and
starting the process all over again.
Unless you apply Squirt.
If you apply Squirt to a clean degreased and dry chain
then your chain becomes lubed and self cleaning. You say goodbye to black gunky
chains and degreasing. All you do is apply squirt and ride, apply and
ride.
Why use an oil on your chain if what you say is
true?
Good question. Oil based lubes work great but the
hassle is always they gunk up. We get told to wipe excess lube from the chain
after application so as to reduce this happening. In other words wipe off what
we just spent money buying. You will have to degrease your chain periodically,
theres no way around that. That requires degreaser and a bucket of oily dirty
black matter to try and dispose off after the job is complete. For seasoned
riders degreasing chains isn't such a drama and at best a little inconvenience
once in a while. For some of us its a hassle.
So Squirt is the perfect chain lube? why can't
I find it anywhere?
In the mid nineties a wax based lube appeared on the
market that was a great idea but didnt work very well. Shop keepers and riders
used it and decided wax lubes didnt work. Like full suspension bikes back then
that didn't work things change and its the same with Squirt which is the next
generation lube and its 100% biodegradable. Unlike an oil based lube that you
can apply just before you ride Squirt needs to dry on the chain first. This
makes it alot less user friendly than an oil based lube although that brings us
back to the degreasing bit again. More and more shops and riders are realising
Squirt is something completely different and have become converts.
