Where Lubrication Legacy Meets Professional Cycling
In modern competitive cycling, lubrication is one of the top three determinants of performance alongside aerodynamics and rolling resistance. At the highest level, victories are decided by fractions of a second.
Drawing on over 170 years of motorsport lubrication expertise, Motul transfers high-performance tribology directly to the peloton. Motul Racing Chain Lube is the flagship bicycle lubricant engineered for riders and teams who leave nothing to chance.
Born in the Lab, Built for the Race
Performance should be proven, not just claimed. Motul developed a standardized in-house testing protocol based on the real-world metrics of a 220 km Tour de France stage.
Key Metrics Grid:
280 W | Constant Power Output
220 km | Stage Distance
45 km/h | Average Speed
90 RPM | Cadence
By replicating extreme race stresses on our chain efficiency test bench, our lab delivered objective, reproducible performance gains:
VERY LOW FRICTION
With a 22 sec* advantage over competitors, our lube turns drivetrain efficiency into a race day advantage.
HIGH WEAR RESISTANCE
With only 0.048%* chain wear after 220 km, our lube ensures long-lasting performance.
SHIELD PROTECTION
With its shield effect, our lube keeps your drivetrain cleaner for longer.
Co-Developed with World-Class Athletes
Beyond laboratory benches, Motul Racing Chain Lube is validated in WorldTour races, UCI World Cups, and intensive training camps through strategic technical partnerships.
Tudor Pro Cycling Team: Tested on high-speed European road courses and gruelling stage races.
BMC Factory Racing: Pushed to the limits through mud, impacts, high torque, and humidity in elite Mountain Bike competition.
