Clean. Lubricate. Protect.
A clean bicycle not only looks better, but also performs better and lasts longer. Dirt, sand and mud cause extra wear and tear on the drivetrain, while moisture and grime can shorten the lifespan of components.
Fortunately, good bicycle maintenance doesn't have to be complicated at all. With the right products, you can easily keep your road bike, mountain bike, gravel bike, city bike or e-bike in top condition.
At CyclOn, we believe in three simple steps: Clean, Lubricate, and Protect.
Step 1 – Clean
A clean bike is the foundation of good maintenance. Start by rinsing the bike to remove loose dirt and mud. Then, generously spray CyclOn Bike Cleaner on the frame, fork, wheels, and other parts. Let the Bike Cleaner soak for a few minutes so dirt can easily loosen.
Next, grab the CyclOn Brush Kit. Thanks to the specially developed brushes, you can thoroughly clean every part of your bike.
Is the drivetrain heavily soiled? Then use CyclOn Bionet Chain Cleaner. This degreaser removes oil, grease, and stubborn dirt, while preserving the chain's internal protective lubricants.
Finally, rinse the bike with clean water and carefully dry it with the CyclOn Microfiber Cleaning Cloth.

Step 2 – Lubricate
After cleaning, the chain is completely free of dirt and old lubricant. To prevent wear and ensure smooth shifting, it's important to re-lubricate the drivetrain.
CyclOn offers a suitable chain lubricant for every riding condition:
- All Weather Lube – Ideal for all weather conditions.
- Dry Weather Lube – For dry and dusty conditions.
- Wet Weather Lube – For wet and muddy rides.
- Wax Lube – For a clean drivetrain with minimal dirt adhesion.
Apply one drop of lubricant per chain link while slowly rotating the pedals. Allow the lubricant to penetrate for a few minutes and wipe off any excess lubricant with a clean cloth. This keeps the chain clean, ensures smooth shifting, and extends the lifespan of the entire drivetrain.

Step 3 – Protect
The last step is to protect your bicycle. Applying a protective layer helps keep your bike clean for longer and shields the frame from moisture, dirt, and corrosion.
Spray CyclOn Bike Protector evenly over the frame and polish the product with a CyclOn Microfiber Cleaning Cloth. This creates a protective layer, making it harder for water and dirt to adhere to the frame.
Do you have a bike with a matte finish? Then use CyclOn Matt Protector. This protects matte paint without leaving a shine, preserving your bike's original look.

Why regular maintenance is important
By regularly cleaning, lubricating, and protecting your bike:
- You extend the lifespan of the chain, cassette, and sprockets.
- Your bike shifts smoother and quieter.
- The frame stays beautiful for longer.
- Dirt adheres less quickly to the bike.
