When Olympic champion, Greg Van Avermaet packed up for a multi-day gravel bike trip, he took along three things: a few good friends, some cold beers, and our new Pocket Wax. Greg knew this small but powerful bottle could keep his chain clean and fast without needing extra gear—just what he needed for his multi-day bike trip.
Easy to carry, easy to use
Our Pocket Wax is a 30 ml liquid version of our original Basic Wax, designed to fit right into your jersey pocket. No bulky equipment, no fuss. Just snap the cap closed, and you're set. This pocket-sized wax is perfect for travel; it means you don’t have to carry a heater or the hot wax tablets that usually go with longer rides.
When you’re on a trip, just apply Pocket Wax to your chain, let it dry overnight, and you’re good to go by morning. Simple and hassle-free!
How it held up on the gravel
Gravel riding can be rough, with plenty of dirt and grit, but Greg’s chain stayed clean and smooth. The Pocket Wax kept his chain performing well without needing extra tools or a lot of time. Even after a day of tough trails, his chain still felt fast and ready for the next ride.
Benefits that last
Pocket Wax doesn’t just keep your chain clean; it also helps it last longer—up to three times longer than using regular oil. And for Greg, it provided a bit of extra speed on the road, up to 8 watts more. It’s a small product with a big impact, perfect for anyone who wants to travel light without giving up performance.
"A bike trip is all about taking the least amount of stuff with you. The new Pocket Wax is perfect for those."
