What about the chain cleaners and degreasers that say they are also lubricants? Can they actually work? I've tried a couple of them and liked them. They don't last long as a lubricant but are easy to use and seem to clean well.
If you've a steel Dutch style bike (or just something really old) with SA hub gears, or single speed freewheel, & an enclosed chain you use round town, that'd actually be fine apart from some general purpose grease for the occasional repack of cup & cone hubs, headset, or BB. Not needing anything specialised is part of the attraction of such "transport" cycles.
great video, seriously you guys are awesome. I've always been mechanically inclined (maintenance electrician by trade, car junkie since forever) but when i got back into mountain biking i needed a resource for bike specific maintenance. You and your team produce excellent videos and very informative, I find working on my bike super easy (which is part of why i love doing the maintenance myself) but i still need a resource to lean on for specific information and you guys are bar none the best on the internet!
Best spray lubricant is CRC silicone. 100% pure silicone lubricant no petroleum distillates. It's about five bucks and can works on every single pivot point and moving part on a bicycle. it also is incredibly useful for keeping rubber parts from drying out and can be a short-term water-resistant application on your clothing and shoes. 👍
One comment about lubing the chain, I was taught a long time ago that the best way to lube your chain, was to do it after you got done riding, lube the chain really well then leave it, and before you go riding next time just take a rag to it, to clean off the excess. The lube has plenty of time to work its way into the rollers that way.
@@workwithreality its just literally backwards in the steps. rist the reason why you remove the excess is to stop it from dripping onto your floor. But you wont have any excess lube to clean before your ride because it HAS dripped onto the floor.
It is beacause of heat and expansion and space, that's why you ideally lube after a short ride and not a cold chain.... Ride a motorbike and you will know. 😅

@@ultimaetsolder It's not a light lubricant, it's a high lubricant. High viscosity lubricant. As for for the original poster (Stacy), WD40 is NOT a degreaser! WD40 in fact can be used to lubricate bike chain. It's not as effective due to its high viscosity, but it's definitely better than nothing.

Nice video, as a new bike rider , super useful information. Just a correction about Wd40 , it is not conductive.. far from it , it as a dielectric (isolation) strength of about 40 000 volts.
it would be great if you guys were allowed by your sponsors to provide in depth similar products guidance . bike tagged products are expensive, and most have similar. bike world didn't invented those suplies. it would be good to let people know float fluid is synthetic gear oil (much thicker than silicon btw), also make people aware that generic grease is calcium or lithium based NLG-2 grease and they have differences. there are premium grease that stays there for longer, are more stable under bearings load or better water resistant, but any calcium based nlg2 will be pretty water resistant. suspension grease is just NLG1 grease (thinner). this was a good what is what video but I'm pretty sure your audience deserves a second more in depth grease video. grease is a science by itself and nobody better than Doddy to make it.
Great video guys, Would like to see a video on how to diagnose fix/replace rear suspension pivot bearings.. how are they fixed in the frame? Also a video on how to upgrade the rear shock. Thank you
Very helpful for us home mechanics. Nothing worse than buying something you think you need only to misuse it and cause damage or not need it and waste time and money.
Well, surely you could use all of these greases, but you do NOT NEED to. Here's my basis list; -wd40; works great for a lot things. Quick lube on the grocery getter, to spraying outer cables. I spray a bit on my forks as well, to keep everything protected (and the seals wet as well). Works great for frame shine as well. -Dry-lube; I use a can of Morgan Blue extra dry lube. Doesn't stick at all, every 2/3 rides I lube up my chain. The can lasts about a year. I use it all year round. -Grease; I use marine grease, since it's extremely water repelend, and thick as well. -Some sort of anti-seize. I don't have a carbon bike, so just some Loctite will do. (-If you are going to heavily service your bike (forks, brake grease) you will want to get the right lube/grease. But not necessary.) And that's all. This can get you through winter, no need for any special greases at all, though if you can, some little investments won't hurt. But with this list, you can get very far. Cool video though, and helpful.
GMBN Tech Wow, that sure is a quick reply guys. I totally agree to that, I wanted to say that this video isn't a must-have, but more of a whats what video indeed. Thanks for the reply, keep up the good work. I'm ordering a GMBN mudguard for this winter season soon.
+Biem Leichel ah wow cheers Biem. Really appreciate you taking the time time to comment and share your thoughts. Also appreciate you representing the channel with the mud guard. Means a lot to us 🤘
Andrew Dodd Ha, Doddy. Thanks for your reply. You're right there, you did say that there are the basics. I got it now though:-) I really liked these replies and this conversation, didn't expect it. Keep up the good work, and have a nice day.
Biem Leichel got a question... Can I use dry lube to apply a bit on the suspension forks in order to cycle them a bit and get dirt from out of the seals? I have done it a couple of times and works well but wanna know if it's ok... Thanks!
Smoove chain lube is awesome wet and dry and its longevity on the chain is incredible it makes all the others on the market look pretty poor and I've tested them in terms of chain wear and how much you have to apply and the price of it.
Thanks for the video as always and especially useful as I went and put down a deposit yesterday (after years of saving) on a 2017 Stumpjumper Carbon Expert and hadn't considered whether a grease was suitable for carbon frames as to date I have only ridden Aluminum frames. A big 👍for that piece of valuable information.
Im doing great, thanks for asking! And yes I have something new on my bike : new 760mm Handlebars, 50mm stem and new grips. When its my birthday (in February) I am upgrading my bike with things like shimano xt 1x11 new dropper lever etc. What about you?
:D I had to wait 10years to see a very resumed video about bike lubes ,my favorite part is buying some lube I think its gonna help my bike and make my personal review thx gmbn
So many parts, ill stick to showering the bike when its dirty and spraying food oil all over it to make it shiny especially the break pads, i like to cover them in oil before every ride
heheheh i maybe lubed my chain only a couple of times in the 22 years of ownership....broke it once, joined it with a link....still going strong......what a good chain, my rule of thumb no squeak, no rust, all good......lol....but yeah.....i should lube it
Chain elongates over time, wearing cogs & rings. Replace when “stretch” reaches or exceeds 1/16” in 12 inches. Otherwise you have to replace the expensive stuff! And with an Eagle 12 spd cassette costing over $400, replacing a $20 chain once a year is good insurance. Plus, smooth operation & shifting every time.
Great video for showing all the different type of lubricants and where to use them, there are some people who grease plastic bottom brackets but I found that bit of information about bearing retention compound very valuable thank you. Although it would be nice to see some other products apart from WD40..... 😉 I think WD40 is there either you love it or hate it.
A great addition to a video like this would be a link to all those products (and ONLY those products) or if you put a list of them at the end of the video.
Another great spot to use thread lock is on the screws holding cleats into your shoes. This is of course assuming you've verified optimal cleat placement.
Can you do a video reviewing options that aren't petroleum based? WD 40 is pretty bad for the environment but there's not much info out there on alternatives. I use green oil but I'm sure there are other brands out there too.
i use antisense grease o my bb threads so i can get it off easy. i use red rubber grease in the bearings and it seems to keep them in much better condition than if i use normal ep2.
i really need to hit up my bike shop see if they can get my bb open and i might need a new chain while im at it coz ive been running 20w40 motor oil for 3 years but alas ive been riding from home to school on roads
Hey, great video. I have a quick question, though. During those in-between times-when you know your axle bearings, cranks, or pedals don't need to be taken apart and re-greased for another six to nine months-would WD-40 WD-40 Specialist Spray and Stay Gel Lubricant be a okay to use? (not as a replacement for a proper servicing, but again, during those in-between times)
From WD 40, between Spray Grease VS White Lithium Grease, which one is better for lubricating bearings / ball bearings like bearings in the drum pedal or skateboard bearings ?? ... Because in drum pedal all the bearings have cover / closed bearings, so i need lubricant that can penetrate to the smallest gap.
Here's our complete guide to grease, lubricant, threadlock. Don't forget to share this one!
The literal "WD-40" itself, or for Muc-Off users like me, MO 94, is great for suspension.
Do not make the mistake of putting actual chain lube on your suspension.
MTBskrt why not uh oh I've done that
What about the chain cleaners and degreasers that say they are also lubricants? Can they actually work? I've tried a couple of them and liked them. They don't last long as a lubricant but are easy to use and seem to clean well.
How about chain wax? How does it differ from wet / dry or general purpose lube?
Can't believe no one has chipped in with "I use 3 in 1 oil for *everything* on my bike and its still going strong after 30 years.........."
If you've a steel Dutch style bike (or just something really old) with SA hub gears, or single speed freewheel, & an enclosed chain you use round town, that'd actually be fine apart from some general purpose grease for the occasional repack of cup & cone hubs, headset, or BB. Not needing anything specialised is part of the attraction of such "transport" cycles.
Just use Vaseline
I use leftover KY
Bacon grease
😄 hahaaaaaa!!!!!
Nice vid Doddy! But I was here mostly to find out what grease you use to do your hair.
Dylan Provan 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂🤣
He uses WD40
depends on the weather...dry or wet, windy? haha
He uses unbranded kitchen grease. It does the trick

Another great spot to use thread lock is on the screws holding cleats into your shoes. This is of course assuming you've verified optimal cleat placement.
Very useful. I'll definitely be getting somebody else to grease and lube my bike. Way too confusing for an amateur.
Ill save this vid for when im ready.
so many different oils/greases/lubes/etc...
Is there a simpler, specific breakdown of what to use and where?
Great video :)
Nail varnish is the best thread locker
Personally I prefer wet lube and spray lube I know it gets muddy faster but I like it more cause it lasts longer
Wolf MTB and plus, if you clean your bike at least once every few weeks, the mud on the chain won’t matter
I just noticed, dude, you look like david schwimmer
Parrafin wax works so well on my chain, stays really clean, cheap as chips too.
1 giant 4£ candle. last me a year or more.

i use antisense grease o my bb threads so i can get it off easy. i use red rubber grease in the bearings and it seems to keep them in much better condition than if i use normal ep2.
My dad sells Shell Oil and Greases so I look like I’m sponsored by shell haha, I use his food safe grease for greasing threads and seat rails
All good stuff, thanks for sharing all the knowledge 👍

+Finn C it's on the list! We will ask Doddy to get it done as soon as he can
Why is Teflon grease not ok for carbon? I have used it thinking maybe I should remove it from my stem and seat post?🤔🤤 grate vid!👌👍
Good stuff guys!
Before even watching it, I know that this is the video I`ve always wanted!!!
Its very helpful but too many information, I just want to know where to apply the lube and greaser
I like the white lightning grease the clear one 😬
i use 3 in 1 oil for chain lube cuz im cheap and its the only lube ive got. messy as hell and smells of lemon but it does the job
Thanks a lot, that's hell of a handfull video!
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video. In which parts should I not use lithium grease and why?
Just what I needed
I use thread-lock on pretty much everything that is metal to metal unless it has a locking washer or lock nut or it's metal into plastic..
WD-40 sucks as a lubricant. But it is one of the best solvents on earth. It is downright magical at dissolving grease and tar.
Perfect video... i literaly needed iy now
GMBN why you guys don't provide links to buy products ?
Please do a video about using wax on your chain. #askGMBN
Great idea Santiago - we'll have to see about it.
GMBN Tech your colleagues at GCN already did it
On the hair too..
i just bought 10 greases for my bike, now tell what to do which for each one!!!
What sort of grease /lube should you use on a dropper seatpost
what a slick video!
This was so helpful thank you so much!
i really need to hit up my bike shop
see if they can get my bb open and i might need a new chain while im at it coz ive been running 20w40 motor oil for 3 years but alas ive been riding from home to school on roads
#askGMBN can you make a video on how to use the suspension lubricant, oils, greases, etc?
Thank you for this info
These videos have tort mr how to maintain my bike 😊
Hey, great video. I have a quick question, though. During those in-between times-when you know your axle bearings, cranks, or pedals don't need to be taken apart and re-greased for another six to nine months-would WD-40 WD-40 Specialist Spray and Stay Gel Lubricant be a okay to use? (not as a replacement for a proper servicing, but again, during those in-between times)

From WD 40, between Spray Grease VS White Lithium Grease, which one is better for lubricating bearings / ball bearings like bearings in the drum pedal or skateboard bearings ?? ... Because in drum pedal all the bearings have cover / closed bearings, so i need lubricant that can penetrate to the smallest gap.
Excellent video thank you!
hey, can u also use for example rock shox specific fork lube for fox forks?
ZX1 lube for any oil that will cut down wear is way better than WD40
