Efficiency is key for making your bike go faster, it's why bike manufacturers put so much effort into making their bikes light and aero. While those two factors often steal the limelight, increasing drivetrain efficiency can be a significant and often overlooked factor in making you faster. Muc-Off, however, haven't overlooked this. They have been busy researching and developing their new Ludicrous AF chain lube, working with closely pro teams such as the INEOS Grenadiers to optimise chain efficiency and save you watts!
Alex was fortunate enough to get an all-access pass to Muc-Off's megabase to see how exactly they optimise chains with this new lube and just how much data and science is involved.
