How to lubricate the drivetrain efficiently
Cleaning and greasing the drivetrain make up the basic maintenance of any bicycle, that's why here we bring you the basic steps to follow so that you do it more efficiently each time.
Tips for lubricating the chain in 30 seconds
The video lasts just half a minute, but it provides key details to not waste time and grease the chain quickly and correctly.
- The video starts with a clean drivetrain, so that should be the first step
- Place the chain on one of the middle sprockets
- Choose lubricant or wax
- Put the right amount of product on the bottom and inside of the chain by pedaling backwards
- Wait at least 2 hours if you have chosen wax for it to penetrate well into the links (it is ideal to do it the day before)
- Ready to ride
