Lubricate the chain



   To lubricate the chain you should first clean all the moving parts of the transmission as gears of the cassette, the wheels of the gearbox, the pedals and the chain.
   
It is useful the following reported procedure to become after ride - workout so the materials can create the best possible conditions for lubrication.



In order to properly lubricate the chain you will need:
a.-Degreaser Chain Cleaner (Spray)
b.-Special brush properly formatted
c.-A piece of Cloth
d.-Lubricant chain (wet or dry) conditions.

 
1.- Turn the crank backwards, spray the chain with the Degreaser in the gears of the cassette until it make 6-7 complete rotations. Then rotate the crank in the opposite direction gradually changing all the speeds of the gearbox you have to let the Degreaser go everywhere, at all points in front or back of the gearbox. Leave it for about five minutes until the formula it contains start it΄s action. Blistering may occur mainly in the effervescence or rear tape.



2.- Rinse  the  Degreaser  with special liquid for bicycles. Alternatively you can use water carefully. Then let the bike  to  dry  thoroughly.  You can wipe it with a cloth while getting more water, and if we use the special liquid that  dries  after  some time alone. If you have a mountain bike or you use it in environments with  dust,  dirt,  sand,  water you can rub it gears up to clean.



3.- Add  lubricant  liquid  to  the chain in the  following  manner:
Rotate  slowly  but  steadily pedals and chain, throwing a drop of lubricant on each  roller-link. Set a benchmark for example safety chain  and  turn  up  to meet again to make sure that a filled circle. Then  rotate  it  with  greater speed 3-4 times that the lubricant be directed  everywhere. This  will  repeat  once  again.



New materials used in the manufacture of lubricants are ceramic with concomitant use of nanotechnology, they have specific protection indicators and in any case are not like the oil they put old cyclists before. Significant  degree  of  viscosity  and adhesive yet - mordant - impurities. With stand higher temperatures  and  protect the moving parts of your bike. Divided into categories depending on the conditions  prevailing or the place where you will move and your bike.


 

Wait for a while and then with a clean cloth wipe the chain to remove the excess oil that may create a problem of sediment bodies that will cling onto it. It should be noted that the use of your bike can be done immediately, but it is preferable to mediate at least 2-3 hours.
