The durability of the chain is a big selling point for it. After the initial application process, subsequent reapplication is only recommended every 25 pedaling hours (sooner if there’s a decrease in shifting performance or if the chain starts to make noise). The Ease of Use is one of the main reasons we chose the Drivetrain, Cleaning Kit. Other drivetrain cleaning kits require you to apply lubricant after every use, which can be time-consuming and inconvenient. The Drivetrain Cleaning Kit only requires you to occasionally wipe down the chain and chainrings to remove any contamination that floated out or that settled on the drivetrain. This makes it easy to keep your ride clean and smooth. I absolutely love the quality of 'RIDE IT SLICK'. It cleans and lubricates as you ride, which ensures that ride quality and performance do not diminish, instead, the more you ride the better 'RIDE IT SLICK' is able to perform. I have never ridden a bike that was as smooth and polished as my ride on my 'RIDE IT SLICK' bike. Due to its durability, non-corrosive properties, and its ability to stay active, 'RIDEIT SLICK' is great for use in cable housing, wheel assembly, derailleur pivots, and suspension pivots.
