I ride 6 days a week between two bikes MTB and road, both bikes have the wax applied. One stand out aspect is dirt doesn’t stick or build up on the chain. I live in a very dusty area especially during summer. I’m a convert for sure. **Q: Is this useful for gravel trails?** A: Yes, gravel is one of the best reasons I can think of to switch to Silca's hot melt chain lube. I ride a lot on crushed limestone trails (formerly railroad rights of way). That fine limestone grit is highly abrasive and quickly works its way into chains lubricated with regular "wet" lubes. Be sure to view the Silca videos to get the right technique and equipment. It's not cheap and relatively time consuming. I try to thoroughly clean and rewax my chains every 500 miles, but my expensive chains are lasting much longer and they're almost silent. **Q: How many times can this be used/reused realistically?** A: So far for me: mine, one friend, two friend: 3 for now, however maybe 3-4 more. Don’t forget between full waxes use the wet wax **Q: how long can this 1lbs wax for $42 last me? I do 7000 miles a year.** A: I think it should last about 2 years. I wax my chain every 300 miles and sometimes I dress my with super secret chain lube ($25 from Silca) to extend the wax. ## Frequently Bought Together - SILCA Secret Chain Hot Melt Wax Chain Lubricant for Bicycles with Nano-Scale Tungsten Disulfide, 500 Grams - SILCA Bicycle Chain Wax Melting System with Cooling Rack, Hanging Stand for Full Steel Chains Upto 115 Links and Electric Melting Pot, 600 ml - SILCA Strip Chip Hot Melt Wax Chain Degreasing for Bicycle Chains | 6 Individual Chips 12 Grams Each | Fully Cleans 6 New Factory Greased Bicycle Chains | Compatible with All Bicycle Chains --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/218705475-secret-bike-chain-wax-blend-hot-melt-wax-bicycle-chain](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/218705475-secret-bike-chain-wax-blend-hot-melt-wax-bicycle-chain) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-11-13*
