Wax vs Oil: Which is the better chain lube?

Josh from Silca is here to answer one of the more asked questions about SILCA recently. If hot melt chain waxing is the way of the future for drivetrain lubrication then why does SILCA make Synergetic and Synerg-E oil based lubricants?

We’re curious if you’ve tried hot wax yet? If so, does it live up to the hype?

A big goal over the last few years at Silca has been getting the brand’s innovative products to the people who want them across the globe. With shipping costs rising, even getting some of its small products to other countries has been challenging. Today the brand just announced the opening of its Australian (Brisbane) Warehouse. This gives us the ability to drastically reduce shipping timelines and cost.

Most of the brand’s catalog is already in stock, including AUS Plug Silca Ultimate Chain Waxing Systems…

Back in 2015, I bought one of the first  Silca SuperPista Ultimate Hiro pumps. These pumps are a modern take on the vintage classic SuperPista floor pump Silca made back when it was an Italian brand in the 70s and 80s. Now, Silca is a US brand and when it re-launched, they debuted a stunning Made in the USA version of the SuperPista pump. 

When I bought it, the pump was dubbed the Impero Ultimate Frame Pump and with a $400 price tag, I was hoping it’d last for decades, much like Silca’s legendary frame pumps that I use on my bikes. Well, eight years later my pump finally needed a rebuild, so I thought it’d be nice to walk through the rebuild process…

Y’all Silca is going to be mad at me for this one. The Silca Terra Floor Pump is the best pump I’ve used from them, and I own a SuperPista Ultimate. Yup, I said it. So how does the Terra—their lowest-priced floor pump (retail of $145.00)—take down the most expensive pump on the market? They kept it simple, and then they innovated. Let’s check it out below!
