Reviews over the

Squirt Lube

Good wax based lube. I use this in the summer & find it a good alternative to the usual oil based lubes. It can be used in wet & miserable conditions, but I find it best to be used when it's nice.

Pros & Cons

The easiest and best chain lube by far. Simple to apply, long lasting and doesnt make a mess. Would highly recommend it.

Pros & Cons

Used it for the last 6 months and it has greatly reduced chain wear and doesn’t attract grit

First application takes some hard work specially with a dirty chain. Still my bike is running smoothly.

Pros & Cons

This lube really does work, not only a lube but it keeps the chain and cassette clean - finally the horrible black grimed chain is a thing of the past

Pros & Cons

Sinds ik dit gebruikt geen vieze handen meer! Heb ook het idee dat de levensduur van de ketting veel beter is.

Pros & Cons

Ketting blijft schoon ook bij nat weer. Je moet wel geregeld blijven smeren, vaker dan de fabrikant aangeeft. Is verder geen probleem.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Na een keer de ketting indruppelen met deze waxolie heb ik totaal geen last van roestvorming. Hij beschermt zeer goed tegen vocht en vuil

Pros & Cons

I have been using Squirt Lube for years, and can not find any better alternative in the market.

Pros & Cons

Altijd goede ervaringen met wax. Zeer geschikt voor ieder weer type. Zolang je het goed gebruikt, blijft de boel goed schoon en gesmeerd.

Pros & Cons

Always leaves my drivetrain quiet and clean

Pros & Cons

I move for the traditional oils to Squirt lube and the difference is night/day! in terms of cleaners on the cassette and chain is amazing and help a lot to get a better pedal stroke much mores smooth; The only con is that you always need to be careful and add every week but is easy to enter in the routine

Pros & Cons

La mejor manera de que tu cadena vaya fluida y sin pringarse ni atraer suciedad. Mejor aplicar por la noche y esperar a usar la bici al dia siguiente

Pros & Cons

Squirt Lube is eenvoudig aan te brengen, droogt snel, ketting maakt geen geluid en blijft proper.

Pros & Cons

geen vette ketting meer en dus minder aantrekken van vuil.

Pros & Cons

Beter aan te brengen dan een spuitbus ketting olie/wax. Trekt niet te veel zand aan waardoor de ketting mooi zuiver maar wel geolied blijft.

Pros & Cons

Dit professionele product is Heel veel beter dan de goedkope spuitbus kettingsmering, dat altijd smerige en vettige ketting opleverde.

Pros & Cons

Ideale wax

Pros & Cons

Product does as recommended

Pros & Cons

Always used 'regular' lube for the chain, consequence after 1 rain shower everything squeaked and creaked and always black chain. On advice I switched to chain wax, great stuff! Yes you must first degrease/polish your chain well and in the beginning it seems to leave more dirt behind but once it is in, polishing the chain is a piece of cake! Just wipe it clean and it stays clean. The advantage is that you don't have to re-lubricate the chain every bike ride. Hardly attracts any dirt and no more squeaking in the rain!

Pros & Cons

Still a good product, much less messy than conventional lubricants.

Pros & Cons

One of the best products to lubricate the chain. It leaves no residue, no need to degrease the chain and it works really well. The first time I try it and I think it will not be the last. Very happy with Mantel, customer service, shipping and prices, all 10.

Pros & Cons

Super stuff, whole drivetrain stays nice and clean. No more dirty black oil stains on your cassette and no more sand and twigs sticking to your chain. From experience I understand that people have cycled 10,000 km with a waxed chain instead of 3,000 km on an oil lubricated chain.

Pros & Cons

Description of this product is completely correct underlines the expectation of this

Pros & Cons

I was somewhat skeptical and therefore never got around to it. Because, of course, a good lubricating oil works fine too. But fair is fair, that's also crap with PTFE that we really should get rid of. You use a little more of this than oil, but it works like a charm and also hardly attracts dirt. I'm over!

Pros & Cons

this is completely consistent with my expectations. Do repeat occasionally in prolonged bad weather.

Pros & Cons

I really like this lubricant. Chain stays clean, even in the rain and when riding over dusty surfaces. Notice that I have to put 1 drop per link once every 8 rides to maintain it. Chain cleaning is virtually unnecessary so far. Super stuff!

Pros & Cons

Protects your chain from moisture and thus rust. The wax layer adheres thinly to the walls of your chain, providing both light lubrication and repelling dirt.

Applied this wax on thoroughly cleaned chain. Now 1000 km on in rain and wind you just see much less dirt accumulation. Definitely keep using this stuff.

Pros & Cons

... also very good lubricating properties for the chain!

Pros & Cons

Product does what was promised

Always my chain was black and took me a long time to clean. Now that I use this chain wax, I suddenly enjoy cycling much more. When I get home, the chain is almost completely clean and I only need to do a little to be able to cycle well again the next day. Ideal for when commuting, in dry weather (wet weather I have no experience with yet).

Pros & Cons

Recommended by a friend, Met my expectations.

Pros & Cons

I have been using this product for years and it does what it says. Chain is really well protected, it stays much cleaner than with oil, and no pfas or oil derivatives in the environment! Yet it is hard to find in the trade, but Mantel turned out to have it in its range.

Pros & Cons

I cycle every year about 11000km,Squirt Lube lubricates the chain very well.No more creaking and always a nice clean chain.Always clean hands if you have to change a tire on the road,just top product

Works like a charm, do use regularly

Very good product, been using it for a few years now. The chain lasts much longer and does not attract dirt anymore.

Pros & Cons

I have tried many waxes and this one is the best, I have been using it for more than 5 years.

Pros & Cons

I've been using this product for 2 years with great satisfaction. You have to learn how to use it, because unlike oils, you have to apply it the day before to allow it to dry. You also need to know how to dose it, not to use too much, and to apply more when you feel you're running out... But the transmission is easy to clean with a damp cloth, as it is water-soluble.

Pros & Cons

No mess, easy and clean to apply

Pros & Cons

Lubricates without smearing, the chain gets much less dust. In MTB it has become essential

Solid degreasing is necessary the first time, which makes it a bit more cumbersome. Once in use, I feel it takes less time than it used to with my classic chainlube.

Pros & Cons

Over the years that I've been using this product correctly and regularly, the life of my mountain bike and road transitions has increased considerably.

Pros & Cons

have been using these for years and versus oil the chain stays clean and dirt has no chance to cling to the chain

Pros & Cons

An indispensable replacement for greasy products. Less messy, prevents black grease build-up. Requires regular application before or after each sustained outing.

Pros & Cons

Very good product, providing good lubrication without darkening the chain or having to degrease frequently. Requires very little chain maintenance. Simply top up with oil

Pros & Cons

It is very important to completely degrease your transmission, chain, chainrings and rollers the first time before using the product. Afterwards, a transmission that stays clean and quiet...

Easy to use and the chain doesn't get as dirty. I don't feel as much sand gets stuck in it

Pros & Cons

Fine stuff that makes your chain and sprockets run smoothly. Fortunately not harmful to the environment. Bottle is easy to carry in a frame bag or something. I use it before every ride.

Pros & Cons

As expected

Have been using squirt wax for the chain for some time now and I really like it. The chain almost always stays clean, which was different with the oil I used to use. The chain also lasts longer because almost no dirt sticks to it and you don't have to lubricate as often.

Pros & Cons

A satisfied user for many years...

Pros & Cons

Only been in use for a year after always using oil and works super.

Pros & Cons

Practically every lubricant on the market already tried with this one coming out as the absolute winner, despite its minor drawbacks. I ride marathons, long distances and multi-hour races and this lubricant holds up extremely well in relatively dry weather. Rides of 150km go smoothly. If there is a fair amount of rain, the effect will dissipate more quickly, but even then a good 100km is still achievable if you don't intentionally ride through large puddles of water. Applying it is easy and if you do it right everything stays nice and clean.

Pros & Cons

I use it on my chain very good lubricants very clean in any weather

Pros & Cons

I use Squirt for my mountain bike chain, which stays clean even after a 40 km ride. No dirt is left behind. What's more, the chain is perfectly lubricated. The chain remains silent and gears shift smoothly. Unbeatable price and attractive shipping, even free over 30 Euros...

Pros & Cons

Meets my expectations

Pros & Cons

Lubricate here summer and winter, no problems with chain stays clean, in wet weather do lubricate more

Pros & Cons

Very productive

Pros & Cons

very satisfied , chain must be cleaned and dried well before applying squirt lube , chain lasts longer , The product penetrates into the metal of the chain and leaves no traces.

Pros & Cons

Wax my chains now for several years with this product and am very satisfied. Absolute purchase recommendation.

Pros & Cons

I now only use this product in dry conditions, it's the best for me and the transmission is silent.

Pros & Cons

To start with the downside; it takes some work to degrease your entire drivetrain (otherwise the stuff doesn't "stick"). So sprockets, chain (including a brand new one), derailleur wheels. But then! Jetz geht loss! No more degreasing, just wipe over the chain, apply wax, done! No grease on your hands or your clothes (or car upholstery). Your chain runs silently, doesn't attract grease and lasts much, much longer. Should have started using it much sooner.

Pros & Cons

Fine stuff, fine replacement for chain oil. Finally got rid of the dirty fingers !

Pros & Cons

I have long pushed me to use wax although I found the benefits very interesting. At some point I got myself up then times, everything degreased and cleaned. Started with my bike I drive in bad weather and immediately had the first rain ride. Why did I not use the wax earlier? The chain runs 1a, dirt does not adhere and the maintenance is much lower. Every 200 km is re-waxed, before briefly cleaned with a brush. I never drive again with oil!

Pros & Cons

Very good wax for the care and lubrication of the chain, I use it throughout the year, rain or dry, very happy and especially the price, very highly recommended.

Pros & Cons

After thoroughly degreasing the transmission, the product performs very well. No grease jumping around, I've been using it for 2 years now on mountain bikes and roads, 8000kms a year. Smooth shifting and transmission longevity. Quick to process and send the order. I recommend Mantel

Pros & Cons

Product already known and ordered from MANTEL

Pros & Cons

The chain runs smoothly

Pros & Cons

Easy to apply and runs between the links very quickly. Then a quick wipe over the rag to remove any excess lube and done. Always cleaned my chain after a dusty ride, but it was hardly necessary: little to nothing sticks to the chain and it keeps running very smoothly. Not yet tested in the rain.

Pros & Cons

I like the chain lube very much the idea that the chain does not attract dirt. I do lubricate it every 300 km. So a long life.

Been using since 1.5yrs and better than expected. Before this I was Bijma weekly cleaning my chain,.now a rarity

Pros & Cons

Before this my chain was incredibly black and greasy and now clean and works perfectly

Pros & Cons

Fantastic stuff. I used to use oil and it does what it is supposed to do, but what a mess compared to wax. Now always a nice clean chain that runs terribly smooth. A pleasure to ride and makes the ride even nicer. Don't hesitate and try it!!!

Pros & Cons

A satisfied user for years, I don't want anything else.

Pros & Cons

Product is ideal for chain maintenance. Much less contamination of the chain, easy to apply and little work to clean it. Also a plus, no greasy/dirty hands.

Pros & Cons

Clean and apply chain well. Let dry well and ride on.

Pros & Cons

Since I've known this brand, I haven't tried other lubricants. Maybe it is expensive, because it is, but of course, seeing that the chains do not get dirty and it lasts long enough, I do not change it. I have tried other models but nothing, this is the only one that really does not dirty the chain or generate lumps...

Pros & Cons

Degrease your mechanics and enjoy

Pros & Cons

Very easy to apply. Economical to dispense. Chain does not become a dirty grimy mess.

Pros & Cons

Stays well in both wet and dry conditions. Adheres well

Pros & Cons

Yet chain and sprockets last longer with Squirt. No black junk on sprockets and chain.

Pros & Cons

Got a tip from a colleague to use this lube because the dirt doesn't stick to your chain and that's right idd, it does need to dry for a while before you ride...so apply hour beforehand or right after cleaning after your ride....

Pros & Cons

I have been using Squirt for years on my road bike, my touring bike and my MTB. Do apply new Squirt very regularly and especially after a rain. Cleaning a new chain is very easy: after 24 hours in benzene a new chain is completely degreased and ready to use.

Pros & Cons

I have been using Squirt lube for years and my drivetrain lasts longer. The key, though, is to degrease the chain well and not use oil and wax interchangeably. 120 ml will last about three to four months with daily use.

Pros & Cons

After every mtb ride little bit of wax on the chain and ready for noiseless riding.

Pros & Cons

Best bike related invention since aerodynamic valve caps! I've been using squirt for 3-4 years and notice my chains last longer. After cycling wipe chain with a cloth, a few drops of squirt & everything is ready again. No grease, dirt & your drivetrain attracts little dirt.

Pros & Cons

I coach entrepreneurs on MTB. To do that, I'm on the road 3 days a week with 2 bikes. I also ride Master 40+ races myself. Still, my XT cassette lasted almost a year! Chain and bike always look cared for and shifting is smooth. When a relation asks about chain oil? Not oil, wax: Squirt wax!

Pros & Cons

Easy to use and lubricates fine. Your chain, sprockets and waistband stay clean. New chain should be 1st thoroughly degreased, but this is only 1-time.

Pros & Cons

I don't want anything else. Super simple to maintain. No more regular protracted dirty oil degreasing.... Just wipe the chain with an old dry rag, apply new squirt and done, 3min work. This best every 150/200km, so regular but oh so simple. Just because it is so simple and quickly done, I maintain my chain much more regularly. You can even do this inside, not dirty at all. First time is some work because you have to get that old sticky mess out of your chain. Before you apply squirt, thoroughly degrease the chain. I myself did this like this: Spray degreaser on chain and sprockets, let it soak in for 10 min, scrub with brushes and rinse with water and dry with old cloth. I had to do this thoroughly 3 times before the cloth I dried with didn't get dirty anymore. From then on you should never degrease, only use squirt. Alternatives attract and hold dirt. As a result, the mash on the chain gets rough from the dirt and the material wears off faster and makes more noise. In addition, dirty chain means that everything that meets it is also quickly dirty; legs, hands, car, pockets.... With the squirt this is much less.

Pros & Cons

Only 1 time degreasing and otherwise just wipe and reapply

Pros & Cons

Cleaner and drier chain for longer. With squirt lubricant I keep my transmission in top condition. After every ride I wipe the chain with a rag and add squirt.

Pros & Cons

Have been using this lubricant for several years and like it very much. Seems to lubricate well and be good for chain life.

Pros & Cons

After each bike ride (both course bike and MTB), the bikes are hosed down. The chain remains waxed.

Pros & Cons

I have been using squirt drylube for years. I have tried others, but squirt just does it better. No residue on the frame and gears. Gears keep running better even when wet.

Pros & Cons

Been using this for years also during beach races. Does not stick to dirt, penetrates quickly between the chain and it does not turn black with dirt and grease. Easy to remove and reapply.

Pros & Cons

The first time with chain wax has convinced me in bad weather. Removing the chains before waxing is quite time-consuming, but it's worth it.

Pros & Cons

Super stuff in dry weather. I have tried many lubricants and with Squirt I am finally satisfied. After each ride (60, 80, 100km) I spin the chain 2x while dripping Squirt on it and am ready for the next ride. The stuff continues to work even on long rides of 150-200km. Squirt reduces the noise from the drivetrain to a very slight hum from the derailleur wheels, which I have not been able to do with any other lubricant. To keep the chain creak-free, you have to reapply Squirt after every ride. The layer of wax does get thicker and thicker, and when it starts to puff out at the derailleur, it's time for the pressure washer. At least, I haven't yet come across a solvent that gets the tar-like substance off the drivetrain. Spinning around a few times and spraying vigorously from all sides, chain dried well and spun around 2x with Squirt. That chain maintenance can be quick is evidenced by the fact that most of the time goes into connecting and cleaning up the familiar yellow patio spray. I find Squirt less suitable for wet weather conditions. After just 60km, my chain starts creaking. I am not a fan of oil because it gives such a black smearing mess. But for longer distances and wet pavement, oil may be the better option. If you're going to hose down after a wet ride anyway, you might as well use oil. Since I am primarily a dry weather road racer, I stick with Squirt. Finally, with frost I don't experience any problems either.
