... a) haven't had the impression it lasts anything good (even w/o rivercrossings) but more importantly

b) it always clogs to complete uselessness.

Basically a pain in the ass to use (had to use grass stems for every drip) and with to be expected low performance.

I'll go back to Silca Synergetic for race use: tried and proven!

Can't recommend. Tested on the Silk Road Mountain Race.

So a few weeks back I wrote that I'll try this Trutension cycle Banana Slip Drip Lube.

Reason: it tests similar to the proven Silca Synergetic, is also kind of a drip wax like Silca Super Secret Chain coating yet promises near instant ready time after application (5-10 mins).

So far, so good.

But...

Sur un gimmick de C. (au moins), pourquoi ne pas lancer cette mode sur les réseaux sociaux. Un post au hasard, quelqu'un qui ne suspecte rien, glisser «tu dis ça parce que tu es en colère».
