Lubricant

 

Keeping your chain lubed is the easiest and cheapest way to keep your e-bike shifting gears smoothly and make your drivetrain parts last longer. There are two primary types.

Types of Lube: Wet vs. Dry

You may see that we sell lube labelled both ‘wet’ and ‘dry’, the difference in what they are used for are outlined below.

Dry Lube

  • Best for dry conditions
  • Dry lube is to be used when there is not a chance of the drivetrain getting wet, it is most suitable if you only ride bikes in the summer. Some of it’s benefits include that it dries almost fully on your chain which means it is not sticky or prone to attracting dirt! It is also easy to clean off of your chain when you need to apply more lube. It is, however, prone to washing off of your chain in the rain or in wet, muddy conditions.

Wet Lube

  • Best for wet conditions
  • Will last even in muddy conditions
  • Especially good for E Mountain bikes that are frequently used off-road in mixed conditions.

Wet lube is to be used in wet environmental conditions, when it is raining, muddy or if there is any chance the drivetrain might get wet. It is a thicker, stickier lube than dry lube and will not wash off easily. The downside of this is that wet lube can be a bit tougher to clean of and more prone to picking up dust in dry conditions.

To put it simply, use wet lube when it is wet outside and dry when it is dry!  Due to the frequency of rain here in the Pacific Northwest, most of us run Wet lube throughout the year.
