Highlights
Why we rate it
Flattop profile
The flat-topped outer plates allow a narrower chain that still has more material where it matters, so it runs quietly and lasts longer.
Hard chrome internals
Chrome-hardened inner plates and rollers resist wear, helping the chain hold its length through high mileage.
Weight-saving cut-outs
Machined windows in the plates trim grams without compromising strength.
12 and 13-speed ready
The E1 version runs on 12-speed road AXS groups and the newer 13-speed XPLR AXS drivetrains.
PVD purple option
The purple version uses a PVD coating that looks the part and adds extra resistance to corrosion.

Sachet Instructions
1. Grab your empty old bottle of Muc-Off. (You may need a pair of adjustable pliers to remove the trigger from the bottle). Or purchase our Bottle for Life.
2. Fill up to the shoulders of the bottle with 1 litre of lukewarm water for faster formula activation!
3. Carefully cut one corner of the sachet open along the diagonal cut lines.
4. You can carefully pour the sachet straight into the top of the bottle. Or using the box, fold the inside of the lid together using the printed lines as a guide and use this as a funnel to pour the powder into your bottle. (Please see our video for full instructions on this.
5. Screw your spray trigger back onto the top of the bottle. Ensure it’s tight!
6. Shake the bottle vigorously for 30-60 seconds to activate the formula. If you notice any undissolved powder simply keep shakin’ it!
7. Go clean that filthy bike!
