Product news: Dirt, mud and dust on the bike increase friction in many areas and thus reduce the propulsion generated by the energy expended by the rider. But what is the best way to keep this jewel on two wheels sparkling clean and in good shape? The new Shimano Clean, Lube & Care series is Shimano's answer to this question. Velomotion introduces!
Shimano Clean, Lube & Care:
As the name says in German "Clean, lubricate & care", the series is based on Shimano's recommendation for three-step bike care. First, the bike should be cleaned with products such as degreasers or bike cleaners. After that, the application of lubricants should ensure the low friction of all moving parts. And finally, the use of care products such as bike polish, grease or assembly paste ensures long-lasting protection and a radiant look.
The aerosol-based cleaning, lubricating and care products are applied in an environmentally friendly manner using air pressure. They are therefore non-flammable and can therefore also be used indoors without any problems. The product range consists of 125 ml, 200 ml and brand new 400 ml containers for degreaser, bike wash, spray oil and bike polish, which are equipped with clever features such as a 360° nozzle. This allows the spray cans to be used in any position - even downwards in hard-to-reach places. In addition, the construction with compressed air cushions as a driver ensures that 100% of the product can actually be used.
The bottled products include a 100ml bottle of wax-based PTFE lubricating oil for use on moving parts in dry conditions, and a 100ml bottle of Wet-Lube, a lubricant for humid conditions that features enhanced water resistance, among other things. Both products are available either as a single product or as a pack of 12 in a counter box. Other products such as degreaser or bike wash are also available in 1000 ml canisters for workshop use. Together with the new, expanded product family, Shimano is introducing a revised packaging design that incorporates the underlying three-step concept and makes the product's area of application recognizable at first glance.
