The acclaimed Ceramic Speed UFO Drip Chain Coating has been updated to it's third iteration, called UFO Drip All Conditions. Now, in a new, smaller bottle size and an optimized formula that has a crisp white appearance while applying, that virtually disappears once fully dry.
UFO Drip is applied in liquid form, but which hardens to a 100% dry chain coating. And in turn it generates less friction than any other chain lube on the market (being out-performed only by the factory-treated UFO Racing Chain). The genius of UFO Drip is that it combines the convenience of a drip application with the friction-beating performance of a completely dry chain coating.
Another benefit of UFO Drip is that the coating closes around the chain in a way that prevents all kinds of contamination your chain is exposed to when riding, from sticking to the chain. Make sure to clean your chain properly before applying and it will then remain clean as long as you re-apply UFO Drip every 200 km as recommended.

I was looking for a product that worked well for Ekar chains and gave this a try. It didn't avoid having me clean/lube the chain less frequent, but it was no worse than other chain lubes i have tried. Still searching...
I followed the directions (somewhat fussy) and applied the product after a wash cycle on my road bike. Three weeks later, even with some wet riding, the chain was still clean, and I didn't sound like a flock of seagulls riding down the road. Usually, my chain is black and nasty after one week as I tend to have crushed limestone trails and other dirt surfaces on my rides. The only thing I would recommend is to clear the applicator nozzle with a toothpick before the first use as the lube had coagulated and as the plug came out and I had lube everywhere.
I was not a fan of the original UFO drip wax but thought I would give this a try. I cleaned my chain in an ultrasonic cleaner with a splash of Simple Green Aircraft cleaner, let dry and followed the directions with two coats top and bottom. I then did the High Cascades 100, an extremely dry and dusty 100 mile MTB race. Zero noise from the chain. This is the best performing lube that I have used at this event, including the super expensive Absolute Black Graphene.
This is an excellent chain coating. The new bottle is an a total gimmick as the price drop is no savings. They just made the bottle smaller and lowered the price. I personally wish they kept the same size container as before as it does require frequent re-coating of you want maximum benefit. I wish they would had left the same price and same container.
That said, the chain coating delivers exactly what is says it delivers 100%. It requires re-coating often enough but it is well worth it. My drive train show little signs of wear and it runs quietly and extremely smoothly. I love the product.
I totally recommend the product if you are looking for an amazing product.
