The Cleaning Kit is an all-in-one solution designed to help cyclists clean their entire drivetrain. It includes essential tools and cleaning products to remove dirt, grease, and grime for smoother performance and longer component life.
The Cleaning Kit is ideal for road cyclists, mountain bikers, gravel riders, commuters, e-bike owners, and anyone who wants to keep their bicycle drivetrain clean and performing at its best.
The Cleaning Kit contains the essential products needed for complete drivetrain cleaning. The exact contents may vary depending on the selected kit configuration.
The kit is designed to clean chains, cassettes, chainrings, derailleur pulleys, rear derailleurs, cranksets, and other drivetrain components where dirt and grease accumulate.
Regular cleaning removes dirt, old lubricant, and abrasive debris that increase friction and wear. A clean drivetrain improves shifting performance, extends component life, and helps your bike run more efficiently.
Most cyclists should clean their drivetrains every few weeks or after riding in wet, muddy, or dusty conditions. Frequent riders may benefit from more regular cleaning.
Yes. The Cleaning Kit is compatible with road bikes, mountain bikes, gravel bikes, hybrid bikes, commuter bikes, cyclocross bikes, and e-bikes with standard bicycle drivetrains.
Yes. After cleaning and drying the drivetrain, apply a quality chain lubricant such as Triboflux Chain Lubricant. Lubricating a clean chain reduces friction, improves shifting, and protects against wear and corrosion.
Absolutely. The Cleaning Kit is designed for riders of all experience levels, making routine drivetrain cleaning simple and effective at home.
Yes. Regular cleaning removes abrasive contaminants that contribute to premature wear, helping extend the lifespan of your chain, cassette, chainrings, and other drivetrain components.
Yes. The kit is an excellent choice for home maintenance as well as professional bike shops and workshops that perform routine drivetrain servicing.
The Cleaning Kit provides a convenient and cost-effective way to keep your drivetrain clean by combining essential cleaning products and tools into one complete maintenance solution.

What makes Triboflux different from traditional bike chain oil?
Triboflux delivers the cleanliness of a dry lubricant with the durability and water resistance of a wet lubricant. Its unique wax-based formulation helps reduce drivetrain friction while shedding water, dust, and grit, keeping your drivetrain cleaner and performing at its best.
Do I need to strip my chain before every application?
No. One of Triboflux's biggest advantages is that it does not require repeated stripping like traditional hot wax systems. Clean the chain before the first application, then simply clean, dry, and reapply as needed.
Can I apply Triboflux over my hot wax?
Yes. Triboflux is compatible with hot wax and can be used as a convenient top-up between hot wax treatments. However, if the wax coating is already loaded with dirt and debris, clean the chain first for the best performance.
Why do you apply Triboflux to the outside of the chain?
Triboflux is applied to the top of each roller just before the chain enters the cassette. As you backpedal and the chain wraps around the cassette, each link articulates, drawing the lubricant into the internal roller, pin, and bushing surfaces where it is needed. The rotating rollers also help distribute the lubricant across these contact surfaces. Any excess left on the chainring or derailleur pulleys should be wiped away before curing.
How often should I apply Triboflux?
Typical reapplication intervals are:
Road: 250–400 miles
Gravel: 150–300 miles
Wet or muddy conditions: Clean the drivetrain and reapply after your ride.
Actual mileage will vary depending on riding conditions, terrain, and weather.
Do I need to remove my chain to use Triboflux?
No. Triboflux is applied directly to the chain while it remains on the bike. There is no need to remove the chain for routine maintenance.
Can I use Triboflux in wet weather?
Yes. Triboflux is formulated to resist water wash-off while maintaining a clean drivetrain, making it suitable for road, gravel, and mountain biking in a wide range of conditions.
Can I use Triboflux in dusty conditions?
Yes. Triboflux was developed to provide the cleanliness of a wax lubricant without the maintenance of traditional hot waxing. Once cured, it helps shed dust and grit while maintaining low drivetrain friction.
Does Triboflux attract dirt?
No. Once cured, Triboflux leaves a dry, wax-based lubricating film that helps reduce the buildup of dust, grit, and road debris compared to traditional oil-based lubricants.
Is Triboflux compatible with all bicycles?
Yes. Triboflux is compatible with road, gravel, mountain, cyclocross, commuter, e-bike, and indoor trainer drivetrains.
Why should I wipe the outside of the chain after application?
The lubricant belongs inside the chain rollers, not on the outside of the chain. Wiping away excess lubricant helps keep the drivetrain cleaner without reducing lubrication where it's needed.
Is Triboflux PFAS-free?
Yes. Triboflux is formulated without intentionally added PFAS.
Do I need to clean my chain before applying Triboflux?
Yes. For the first application, thoroughly clean the chain to remove factory grease or any previous lubricant. For future applications, simply clean the drivetrain, allow it to dry, and reapply Triboflux. There is no need for repeated stripping between applications.
Can I ride immediately after applying Triboflux?
For best results, no. Allow Triboflux to cure for 4–6 hours (overnight is ideal) before riding. This allows the carrier to evaporate and the wax-based lubricating film to fully form. However, if you need a quick top-up during a ride or race, you will still benefit from Triboflux's friction-reducing properties, although maximum durability and cleanliness are achieved after a full cure.
