Riders who want a clean, quiet drivetrain for dry, dusty or sandy rides of up to about three hours.
Ride Mechanic Bike Milk is a dry film chain lube with a triple action of clean, lube and protect. Its penetrating and degreasing action helps shift grime and lets the lube flow through the moving parts of the chain.
Once the film forms the chain stays clean without a wet residue to catch dust. A reservoir effect feeds lube into the joints as you ride, and the maker suggests it for shorter rides of up to three hours, dry and dusty rides, and beach or sand conditions. This is the 185 ml bottle.

How the maker says to apply it
Degrease the chain first, shift to the smallest sprocket, shake well, then apply a soaking stream to the moving chain at the cassette and keep it turning for 20 seconds or more. Wipe off the surface residue with a dry cloth. Let it dry, overnight if you can, and repeat for a thicker film.
