I've been waxing my chain for 8 months...I wasn't sure if waxing was for me..that was until I came across the Cyclowax system which removes ALL of the guess work and allows you to wax your chain in ten minutes, 100% fuss free.
Free speed, less maintenance, longer lasting equipment and a silent drive train are just some of the benefits of a waxed chain.
As part of this video I'm going to give one lucky viewer the chance to win their very own Cyclowax starter kit valued at $200+
All you have to do is:
- Comment below letting me know why YOU should win the kit
- Follow me on instagram @jackultracyclist
- Follow @cyclowax on instagram
- Subscribe to the channel!
I'll draw the winner on Sunday April 2nd. Yewwww!

great tutorial, love the looks of a clean chain, and the idea of reduced environmental impact. I think as cyclists, we have a much more connected understanding of nature and the importance of preservation of natural beauty, to a greater extent than those who only really see it through a car, bus, train window

Great to see this in use Jack. I'm believer in waxing my chain and the benefits can really be felt. I use Silca Super Secret after stripping new chains down with mineral spirits, which does a great job but dripping the wax on like a regular lube never instills in me the confidence that I imagine submerging and bathing the entire chain would. This seems like such a neat little gadget and would love to win the giveaway. All followed and subscribed! 🤞

I've been looking to get my grimy, lube-stained hands on a kit ever since you posted about it last December. Their website mentioned that a tablet lasts for around 8 wax treatments, but you mentioned that you've been using the same tablet for 5-6 months' worth of weekly treatments, so I guess that's fine if it's coming from you. Super convinced about the short- and long-term cost-effectivity and convenience of this system 👌

Presumably if you've had a really messy ride, with all sorts of road mess covering the bike, you need to give the chain a good wash down before re-waxing as you'd only contaminate the wax in the pot if not. Is that right? What do you do? And if you wash the chain with water, do you need to do anything ahead of rewaxing?

Great video! However, I’m not waxing my chain for two reasons: 1. Noise, okay it’s silent for the first 1-2h, then i got a lot of noise (in comparison with oil Silca like lube) 2. Remove chain from the bike, ideally you need to install brand new quick link every single time (I believe sram recommends to use quick link only once, for flat top chains), so basically they are not reusable, which is annoying and additional expense.

Very important to clean chain rings and cassette from dirt and lube residue otherwise the waxed chain will get contaminated and wax won't be as effective/clean

You are not showing the chain cleaning process. I assume that would need to occur prior to using it if you are not using a new chain?
@jackultracyclistofficial
@jackultracyclistofficial Жыл бұрын
There isn’t one mate, to use a wax system properly (I should have clarified this in the video) you need to start with a pre-waxed chain from the professionals - in this case Cyclowax. Using an old chain, you risk having too much residual grease and the wax will not bond properly. Good pick up!

Hey Jack, we cannot use chains from Shimano or sram yes? The chains have to come from cylowax?
@jackultracyclistofficial
@jackultracyclistofficial Жыл бұрын
The Cyclowax chains are from sram, Shimano and a few other manufacturers but they’ve had the PROPER degrease. I would highly recommend buying their pre-waxed chain and not trying to clean your own chain at home

I don’t wax the quick links, just because I don’t want to ‘engage them and disengage them’ during the process. Cyclowax state that this is A-ok 🤘🏽🤘🏽 how goods the wax?!

If you start with a pre waxed chain, you don’t need to wash the chain ever again! Just re-wax it and you’re good to go again 👊🏽👊🏽

How do you wax the chain when you don't have this machine around? e.g. if you go on a multi-day bikepacking tour with more than 500 km.
@jackultracyclistofficial
@jackultracyclistofficial Жыл бұрын
You can use a drip wax for a bikepacking circumstance like the one you mentioned. Make sure it’s only wax though, no more lube🙅🏻‍♂️

Did you try to use UFO drip or Silca super secret occasionally and see how that behaves once it’s thrown into the „real“ wax?

I’ve tried using squirt in between waxes where I don’t have access to the Cyclowax kit and there appears to be no problem, provided you use a wax based drip lube. Awesome to know for travel and circumstances where it’s not possible to take the kit, or a spare chain 👌🏽👌🏽
