No Compromises

Unlike lubricants containing Tungsten Disulfide (WS2) additives or oils, Graphenwax V2 prioritizes performance and durability without compromising under real-world conditions. Rest assured, your drivetrain is in good hands.

Limited Availability

Due to its complex manufacturing process, Graphenwax V2 is produced in limited quantities and sold on a first-come, first-served basis. Don't miss out on this revolutionary chain lubrication solution.

Elevate your cycling experience with Absolute Black Graphenwax V2 and enjoy smoother, more efficient rides with unmatched drivetrain protection and performance. Experience the future of chain lubrication today.

Advantages

Why pliable Graphen wax is better than any other hot melt formula:

  • It is much easier to brake-in the chain.
  • It's the most quiet hot melt wax you will ever use.
  • It flakes less than paraffin, meaning you have more wax that protects the drivetrain for longer.
  • It's quiet for a long time because it sticks better to the side of link plates enhancing the shifting performance
  • Lasts longer thanks to wax flexibility and Graphene additive
  • Delivers incredibly low friction for much longer than any other wax.
  • Doesn't melt off your chain on a hot day.

How long does the box of Graphen wax last:

Each chain treatment uses only 3-4g (0.14oz) of wax if you let it drip back into the crockpot while it dries. We actually weighed it. If you clean your chain with boiling water (see video below), let it dry and then wax, you could get around 62 treatments and still have 100g (3.5oz) left in the pot to guarantee full immersion of the chain. It's only a matter of how much you contaminate the wax or how well you clean the chain with boiling water prior to every waxing. Wax will still last the same number of applications regardless of cleaning, but if you contaminate the wax too much, it will no longer be as effective.

It's like walking in the house with shoes on. The floor is clean as long as you clean your shoes every time you enter the house.

Usage

How to lubricate your chain with Graphenwax® V2

First Chain Preparation: Take the chain off the bike or use a brand new chain and clean it using a solvent (like White Spirit or mineral turps) by immersing the chain completely in the solvent for 20-60min using the poly bag that was delivered with the wax (Use gloves). Shake the bag with chain for 2min at the end. Take the chain out and let it fully dry (10-12h - super important). Optionally you can rinse the chain at this point with 98% alcohol to remove any remaining residue. Once the chain is fully dry (10-12h) you can apply the wax normally as instructed below. Solvent cleaning is only needed for the first time to remove the oils.

  • After that , If the chain is dirty, you can clean it by simply pouring hot water on the chain and letting it dry Cleaning the chain this way doesn't contaminate the wax in crockpot, making it useful for longer.
  • Melt the GRAPHENwax ® in the crockpot (slow cooker) in the usual manner on medium heat. Melt it completely. Our wax melts at around 70°C (160°F) but you should heat it to around 90-100°C (194-212°F)
  • Fully immerse the chain into the molten wax and wait until the wax buildup on the chain melts again (min 10-15min - IMPORTANT!). The best way to do this is to use a wire metal clothes hanger by threading both ends of the chain on the hanger.
  • Agitate the chain gently (up, down, left right) in the liquid wax (using the coat hanger) for about 3-5min to make sure that the wax goes into the pins. Links need bending movement in order for the wax to get in.
  • Take the chain out, hang it, then gently wipe the excess of the wax from the chain side plates and let it cool for about 15min.
  • After FULLY cooling to room temperature (min 40min), simply hold your chain in one hand and brake all the links with the other.

Troubleshoot:

  • Chain squeaks only after a few hours of dry riding. - It means there is wax starvation caused by improper waxing. Make sure the wax temperature is correct (this is Crucial), make sure to wait a minimum of 10-15min after immersing the chain in the wax before agitating because the chain needs to heat up to the same temperature - you cannot rush it. Inserting a cold chain into hot wax dramatically decreases wax temperature. So you need to let it heat up again. Agitate the chain for 3-5min in a way to bend as many chain links as possible.
  • Wax flakes off on my turbo-trainer sessions. - It means you didn't wipe the chain after hanging it to dry. Make sure the waxing temperature is right (it's crucial). After swishing, hang the chain and wipe it with a paper towel/cloth on the outside plates then let it cool. Once cooled run it through your gloved hand to break the links.

Warning.

Please remember that melted wax is very hot, so you should always wear appropriate protective clothing, leather gloves and safety glasses. Never leave the working crockpot unattended. After use, turn the crockpot off and make sure the still hot melted wax is not reachable by children or other unauthorized people. Use only a crockpot (slow cooker) to melt the wax. Never use oven, microwave or stove. Never exceed the temperature of 100°C (212°F). Never expose to open flame. Keep away from children. Use in a well-ventilated space

Re-Waxing intervals:

GRAPHENwax ® coating will last on the chain for approximately 450 km (280 mi) in dry road conditions. The longevity of the coating will be reduced in dusty/off-road conditions. When the chain starts sounding dry, it is time to re-wax. 

When riding in rain/wet conditions, the chain should be re-waxed after each ride. This is inherent to all hot melt waxes no matter the brand, and cannot be avoided.

If your rides are often in mud/rain we recommend our amazing GRAPHENlube, which will greatly reduce the maintenance intervals.
