The Guy’s Bike’s beeswax chain lube is organic, from range-free bees provided by local bee farmers. Ride with the power of the hive. With Silky, smooth, stinger-sharp shifting. Don’t be derailed by substandard lubes. See what the buzz is all about. https://youtu.be/mnW4dN2oHRM
The Paraffin, Beeswax with Graphite blend coating will last on average for most road riders around 220 miles (350km) and mountain bikers around 125 miles (200km). The dryer the conditions, the longer it will last. I get twice the mileage on my chains. Even in wet conditions, the wax will outperform any liquid lube on the market. This leads us to the next recommendation. (Those are very conservative numbers)
Industry-standard best way to run a paraffin system is to rotate chains. For example, if you ride 700 miles (1,127km) a month, you’d be best rotating 3 chains. Use the first chain for about 10 days of riding, swap to your second chain for days 11-20 days of riding, and when you get to the third chain, re-wax the first two chains. But I personally just ride until the chain makes noise, then swap it out. Typically, most people will get 2 years out of their chains using this system!

Note: It’s messy and is not for everyone!
Here are some of the benefits of using chain wax:
✅ Low friction: Molten chain wax has very low friction, which can help to improve your bike’s performance.
✅ Long lasting: Hot Melt chain wax can last hundreds of miles, so you won’t have to reapply it as often as other types of lubricants.
✅ Clean: Hot Melt chain wax doesn’t attract dirt and grime, so your chain will stay cleaner longer.
✅ Environmentally friendly: Hot Melt chain wax is biodegradable, so it’s a more environmentally friendly option than some other types of lubricants.
If you’re looking for a high-performance, long-lasting, and environmentally friendly lubricant for your bicycle chain, then chain wax is a great option.

My passion for bikes started when my parents opened a shop in the 1980s called Parker Bikes (we were located in Parker, Colorado). My love for cycling has continued since then, in my work and with my hobbies of road cycling and mountain biking. After my parents’ shop closed, I worked for other bike shops (including Lee’s Cyclery in Fort Collins), where I built and sold bikes, fixed and tuned up bikes, and managed inventory.
I love working on bikes and want to share my passion for cycling with others. So, next time you’re talking cycling with someone and wondering how to get started or where to go from here, you can think, “I know a guy!”
