Protect your Investment
Whatever the riding style, the cycling enthusiast's bicycle has a hard
life. The repeated stresses from travelling over bumps and constant
torquing on the drivetrain leads to accelerated wear and tear. A well
maintained bike lasts longer, rides more smoothly and is more reliable
when you are miles from home.
A bicycle
is an expensive investment and our sport has a lot of gear involved
compared to other recreational pursuits. Once cycling enthusiasts have
their ideal bike, they want to ride it as much as possible before replacing
expensive parts. Regular maintenance of the drive train and moving parts
can significantly extend a bike's lifetime.
Whilst
it is possible to get by with general purpose lubes and fluids you may
find in your garage, high performance chemicals designed specifically
for cycling work better and last longer. We aim to bring you the best
cycle maintenance products at an affordable price to make it worth your
while. Go the extra mile with a smoother, cleaner running bicycle.
Ride-Right products help you fall more in love with cycling, with smooth
running and long lasting equipment.
High Performance Chain Lubes
The
chain is an important component and has a hard life. Even in dry conditions
the cycle enthusiast's chain becomes worn and stretched fairly rapidly,
as they enjoy cycling in the sunshine for many miles. Factor in wet
conditions, muddy off-road rides, low gears and heavyweight riders and
lubrication of the chain is even more important.
The best type of chain lube to use depends on the conditions you ride
in. When it is dry and dusty outside only dry dust is attracted to the
chain. Under these conditions a dry wax lubricant is best. This leaves
a dry lubricating film between the moving parts with no wetness or stickiness.
The chain stays very clean, with minimal attraction of dirt and grime.
After cycling in the sunshine and returning home, more dry wax lubricant
can be applied straight to the chain, without the need to clean it first.
Each time it is applied the ceramic coating builds up,, ultimately providing
the durability of many oil-based lubes.
Ceramic
Dry Wax Lube is best for dry and dusty conditions.
For wet conditions, and muddy off-road riding
a high adhesion wet lube is required for your cycle
chain. Water and mud are constantly being splashed over the
drive train. The wet lube is more resistant to washing off than a dry
wax. It goes on wet and stays wet on the chain. The super durable, high
viscosity synthetic oils sticks to the moving parts. This gives maximum
longevity in the harshest cycling environments, and when you ride hard
and long.
Ceramic
Wet Lubricant is best for wet and
muddy conditions.
Quality Greases
Grease
is used to lubricate many important parts of the bicycle, including the
bearings. Bearings are found in everything from pedals, to bottom brackets,
headsets and wheel hubs. Grease is also used for assembling parts like
suspension forks, sliding O-ring seals and protecting against corrosion
and seizure in fixtures such as pedal axles.
The cycling enthusiast may take on complicated maintenance jobs themselves,
such as stripping down wheel hubs and pedals to service loose ball bearings,
or cleaning headsets and suspension forks. Using a high quality grease
ensures maximum service life. You can go the extra mile and enjoy the
sport more, before the next time-consuming strip down is neccesary.
For demanding applications such as wheel hubs where the bearings rotate
quickly under load, we recommend using Ceramic grease. This gives the
maximum long-lasting lubrication. It is also recommended for extreme weather
and muddy off-road riding, where the grease can become contaminated with
water and grime. Durable ceramic grease keeps working to protect your
valuable parts more.
Ceramic Grease
has maximum protection for critical bearings and extreme weather.
For
normal, less demanding applications and dry conditions we recommend the
Silicone General Purpose Grease. This is a high quality conventional grease.
It is ideal for headset bearings, pedal axles, lubricating o-ring seals,
preventing parts from seizing and for bearings that are not under high
loading or extreme conditions. It is less expensive than the ceramic grease,
so you can use it more plentifully to ensure optimun maintenance.
Silicone Grease is best for general purpose use.
Brake Mineral Oil
Disc
brakes are essential for your safety and enjoyment of cycling, especially
the fun downhills. The enthusiast may choose to bleed their own brakes
when air has got into the hydraulics and lever feel is compromised. Our
brake fluid is designed specifically for bike brakes with no compromise,
leading edge chemistry to give superior fluid life and braking performance
over common mineral oils. It has super low-viscocity for better lever
feel and pad retraction, with consistent performance through a full range
of operating temperatures.
Brake
Fluid gives high performance with Shimano and Magura brakes.
Anti-Fog Cleaner
Eye
protection is used in many forms of cycling. For Mountain Biking safety
glasses are often worn, to protect the eyes from branches, mud and stones
thrown up from the trail. Downhill mountain
bikers wear goggles to protect the eyes. Road cyclists often wear sunglasses
to protect from UV exposure when enjoying cycling in the sunshine.
Keeping the
glasses or goggles clear of mist is an important safety consideration.
The body heat generated by climbs, or putting power onto the pedals can
cause the glasses to mist up. Whether on or off-road or the trail, the
rider's vision is critical for safety. The road cyclist must be aware
of other road users and the road. The off-road cycling must find the best
line through dark shadows in the forest trail.
Our Intensive Anti-Mist
formula lasts up to seven days.
Fork Stanchion Oil
Fork
Stanchon Oil is used for cleaning the suspension fork stanchions and seals.
Regular cleaning after each ride keeps the seals working longer, and protects
the stanchions of your expensive forks. Without cleaning the seals become
contaminated with dirt and grime. Over time this leads to seal failure
with oil leaking from the fork leg, attracting more dirt and grime onto
the stanchion. Eventually the surface coating of the stanchion is worn
away due to the abrasive dirt. Even if the fork is serviced, the worn
surface of the stanchion cannot seal properly, and oil leaks out again.
Regular cleaning with our super
low friction fork oil maximises suspension fork life. It is
also ideal for dropper posts.
Regular cleaning of fork stanchions maximises
service life.
Moly Spray
Moly Spray is a dry film coating of Molybdenum Disulphide for bike assembly
use. It is designed to lubricate assembly of sliding parts, where a wet
lubricant cannot be tolerated. These include seatposts and seat clamps,
cranks, derailleurs, cables, pins, V-brakes, brake levers and pedals.
It is suitable for lubricating the sliding tube of a dropper seatpost,
and it can also be used as a dry film oil for the drive train.
Use the right bike
assembly lubricant for long term reliability.
Motion Pro Action Cameras
We supply high quality sports helmet camcorders that are ideal for cycling
enthusiats. They can be used as a road safety tool for road cycling, or
for making exciting action films for mountain biking and BMX. Our cameras
feature a 120 degree wide angle lens. This is narrower than the 170 degree
fisheye lens commonly used by GoPro and other brands. You focus better
on what is in front of you. This is ideal for footage chasing another
rider down a trail.

SceneMax - Scene Creator and
Playback Software
If you have a collection of video clips from a camcorder
or smartphone you often want to play only the highlights of these without
showing each clip in full. Normally to do this you have to edit a whole
new video yourself. Whilst editing gives the most control, its time consuming
and needs video editing software. For simple viewings for your friends
its more convenient to play the original files without editing.
With SceneMax
you make a customised sequence of the best parts of your videos. Its simple
to setup with the scenes you want. You then play them back in one continuous
viewing. You can edit the scenes, add more and save the whole sequence
to file. It works with the original files from your camcorder, so you
watch them in highest quality with no changes or recompression. It also
supports slow motion for use with action cameras.

Exercise Bike Seat Extender for a Tall Person
Its common that seat posts on exercise /spin bikes don't not raise high
enough to fit a tall person. Correct leg extension is important for optimal
pedalling efficiency and to exercise the legs through their full range
of motion. The saddle
extension for a tall person fits a common saddle standard used by
most Roger Black exercise bikes. It simply bolts in place between the
saddle and the seatpost to raise the height. The production version is now ready
and it's available to order online from our sister site (Motion Pro).
