Where are we buying smoove lube?

As title really. It seems it’s either out of stock or massively expensive.

Any good places to get it mail order?

The UK importer recently closed their doors so it might be a bit thin on the ground until someone else picks it up.

hmmm, this is concerning as im running low, squirt the closest alternative still?

Smoove is probably not enough for current conditions, Squirt even less so. Are there any other copycat wax lubes that might be closer?

I have about a quarter of a bottle left…

@martinhutch – Smoove is absolutely the next bottled wax lube available for wet weathers 🙂

Hello Smoove Lovers 

New UK distributor organised and stock arriving late January. 

Website will be live later this week (www.blackmountainscycleworks.com – ignore current location).

Great to hear!

if you have a look at the zero friction site, the clear winner for our winter conditions is Synergetic :

That Synergetic stuff is almost as expensive as printer ink, the most valuable substance in the known universe.

^^^^ i thought that too but I bought a bottle last year and it has lasted ages….less is more ! 🙂

If the bloke that runs Zero Friction saw the kinds of conditions we ride in winter in this country, he’d likely pass out.

@bikedibley

Even Smoove struggles with the amount of water on my trails at the moment! But that’s understandable – I still use it through the winter, just means more reapplications.

Still preferable to wet lubes, and I can’t be doing with deep fat fryers!

UFO wet weather drip wax ?

My thoughts too.
Seems totally irrelevant for my use.

E-Bike Squirt could be a suitable alternative to Smoove. I’m currently using e-bike Squirt and it’s longer lasting and more water resistant than standard Squirt. I did use Smoove a couple of years back and from what I can remember it performed about as E-bike Squirt.

I got a delivery the other week from Awcycles

If you use ebike squirt re you giving up on proper lubrication?
