The crowning glory of Molten Speed Wax for all fans of waxed chains for Day X.
If you want everything to run smoothly and with little friction, then this powder on a waxed, broken-in chain is definitely what you need. Extremely fine MoS2 (molybdenum sulfide) and WS2 (tungsten disulfide) ensure an unprecedented chain feeling. Both are dry technical lubricants and are also included as additives in the actual Molten Speed Wax .
Unlike PTFE, the powder here is black, but it also sticks everywhere. It is best to apply the race powder outside and pay attention to the direction of the wind and make sure not to inhale it. Hold the can under the chain and carefully dab a brush (you can get a nice one here ) onto the chain from above, turning slowly backwards. This way you can catch any excess powder. It is best to do this when the bike is running at an angle, so that the powder gets into all the free spaces. To do this, shift the chain as far as you would prefer during a race (yes, because of the friction). You can find out exactly what this all looks like in my blog .
