Lab-grade purity. SILCA’s wax formulas are engineered for maximum drivetrain efficiency and minimal friction.
Race-proven tech. From time trials to crit carnage, SILCA delivers speed where it counts.
No shortcuts. Ever. If it’s not elite-grade, it’s not in our lab.
Because you’re not riding a lawnmower. Waxed chains run cleaner, quieter, and faster. Less grit, less drag, more watts. It’s science—and a little bit of sorcery.
Nope. This is chain care with a lab coat and a stopwatch.
We use SILCA’s elite-grade wax blends in a lab environment and a multi-stage prep process that would make a chemist blush.
Your chain gets the spa treatment—then goes straight to war.
Depends how savage you ride. Expect 100–300 miles between drip wax treatment in dry conditions, or when you start to notice noise, other than the crying of your fellow cyclists trying to keep up with you.
Hot wax interval, as recently published by Silca, to be between 1000 - 1500 miles, all based on riding conditions.
Re-waxing is fast, clean, and oddly satisfying. Muddy CX or wet gravel? Shorter intervals, but still cleaner than lube. Just sign up for the Expedite Program and you'll never have downtime.
SILCA’s secret sauce: high-purity paraffin, tungsten disulfide, and race-grade additives.
We don’t mess with homemade blends. If it’s not engineered for speed, it’s not touching your drivetrain.
Only if you pedal.
But yes—reduced friction means more power to the wheel. Over a season, that’s a lot of minutes saved and podiums earned.
Depends what you read, but expect between 5-8 watts savings.
