The result is thin and waxy, which prevents dust, sand, and dirt from sticking to the chain. Dry Lube can also be used on derailleurs, shifters, cables, and brake pivot points. It is also much cleaner to use. It take a couple of hours (2-4 hours) to dry after application. The downside is they don\u2019t last very long and water washes the lube away. Because dry lube is thin and lighter, it doesn&#8217;t last long, and it will get washed of in wet conditions. Therefore it is more frequent application than wet lubes and should be reapplied after a rainy ride. Also the chain needs to be very clean before applying.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>WET LUBE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/blog\/2020\/06\/23\/6279\/big_fl_cer_wet_us_2oz_ma_1312_crc_rgb\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6307\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6307\" src=\"https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/big_FL_CER_WET_US_2oz_MA_1312_CRC_RGB-164x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"164\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/big_FL_CER_WET_US_2oz_MA_1312_CRC_RGB-164x300.jpg 164w, https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/big_FL_CER_WET_US_2oz_MA_1312_CRC_RGB.jpg 327w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 164px) 100vw, 164px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/blog\/2020\/06\/23\/6279\/img_20200615_185059\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6291\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6291\" src=\"https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_185059-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"268\" height=\"357\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_185059-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_185059-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_185059-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_185059-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_185059-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 268px) 100vw, 268px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/blog\/2020\/06\/23\/6279\/img_20200615_184759\/\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-6288\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-6288\" src=\"https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_184759-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Half wet from Wako's\" width=\"229\" height=\"305\" srcset=\"https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_184759-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_184759-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_184759-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_184759-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/suzupower.com\/soka\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2020\/06\/IMG_20200615_184759-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 229px) 100vw, 229px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 40px;\">Wet Lube is typically recommended for extreme conditions. Because it\u2019s thick and sticky, it is longest lasting and most water resistant lube. Wet Lube goes on wet, and stays wet&#8230; to provide maximum drivetrain smoothness, extremely quiet rides, and ultimate rust protection in the harshest of environments (wet, muddy, and humid). Don\u2019t need time to dry, so can just reapply as needed on the spot. The downside is because wet lub is sticky, it has a tendency to collect dirt and grit from the road.<\/p>\n<p>However, <strong>the two most important things are keeping your chain clean and lubricated.<\/strong> This will result in a longer-lasting chain that will pedal easily and smoothly, regardless of what type of lube you use.<\/p>\n<p>Please come and check some high quality of lubricants that we have in <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">SPORTS BIKE FACTORY<\/span>, then grab what you need!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 16px;\"><strong>Wish you happy cycling! ;D<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hello Cyclists!!
