Find the perfect formula for every weather condition and terrain.

The chain is the heart of your bike's power transfer. At CicloBottega, we understand that the right lubrication can make the difference between a smooth, record-breaking ride and a noisy, inefficient one. Our selection of bicycle chain lubricants is curated to reduce friction, prevent corrosion, and extend the life of your cassette and chainrings.

Advanced Formula for Every Environment

Choosing the right lubricant depends on where and how you ride:

• Dry Lubes: Ideal for road and gravel in dry, dusty conditions. These formulas penetrate deep into the links and dry to a waxy film that doesn't attract dirt.

• Wet Lubes: Engineered for extreme durability. If you ride in rain, mud, or through the winter, these high-viscosity oils provide long-lasting protection against water and salt.

• Ceramic & Wax Lubricants: The choice of performance enthusiasts. Ceramic lubes provide the lowest friction possible, while chain wax keeps your drivetrain incredibly clean to the touch—perfect for high-end road bikes.
