product description:
The Legendary Self-Cleaning Lubricant. You ve known and loved White Lightning for its "Original Self-Cleaning Lube" - but boy, what a long name… and we know we all use it because it stays clean - so we ve renamed it, but no worries, no changes have been made to the formula - it s the same lube but now with a new name that says it all, in just two words; Clean Ride..! Clean Ride is Cycling s Only Self-Cleaning Lubricant. Clean Ride literally sheds dirt & grime while you ride, keeping your bike running smoothly. Clean Ride sets up as a dry wax film. There is no oily film to attract abrasive contaminants, so your chain and gears will perform better and last 2 to 3 times longer. Clean Ride s self-cleaning action is activated by any dirt, grit or grime that finds it s way onto your chain or parts. Small particles of the outer wax structure will flake off, taking the dirt, grime or grit with it. This begins the cycle of self-cleaning . Clean Ride is a unique, wax-based lubricant, so it is important to start with a clean chain. For optimum self-cleaning performance, do not mix Clean Ride with oil based lubricants. The dirtier the ride, the more active the shedding action. So to this extent, Clean Ride will require more frequent re-application after dirtier rides. When Clean Ride is used regularly and properly, you ll rarely have to clean your chain again. So, while your buddies are cleaning their chains, you ll be applying a fresh shot of Clean Ride and heading out for yet another great ride!White Lightning s Clean Ride product is a self-cleaning, wax-based lubricant for bicycle chains, derailleurs, and cables.

About White Lightning
In 1994, retired research chemist Paul Maples was determined to find a way to end the messy inconvenience and performance inefficiencies caused by the dirt, grease, and grime build up on his bike chain. He set out to develop the first and only chain lube that would "self-clean," which he dubbed Clean Ride. The product actually repels and sheds dirt and grime from your chain and parts while you ride, and was so unique it was awarded four U.S. patents. In 2000, Paul sold White Lightning to Hank Krause, who had been developing performance bicycle lubricants since the mid 1980s. Krausse and his team took over, and -- with continued collaboration from Maples -- the result has been a steadily growing line of bike maintenance products.
