As we think about ways to start transitioning away from fossil fuels, we need to look at the little things we do (or don’t do) every day that might help. For example, riding our bikes more. But… what about the petroleum product you use to oil your chain? There’s no alternative to that, right? Wrong.

mountainFLOW‘s new line of plant-based bike products is the answer. Similar to ski wax, nearly all the bike lube on the market is made from petroleum. But just like their eco ski waxes, mountainFLOW’s lineup of lube, grease and wash is biodegradable and works just as well as any comparable petro product. Their products also smell a lot better and don’t feel icky if they get on your hands and clothes.

Bike Lube – All Weather

One bike lube to rule them all! This All Weather light oil works great in just about every riding condition and can be used on mountain bikes, road bikes, e-bikes, tri-cycles … you get the idea.

  • Plant-Based and Biodegradable
  • 0% Petroleum  
  • Fast + Smooth
  • Riding Conditions: Moderate/Mixed

Even the bottle is eco-friendly! It is made from 100% Post-Consumer Recycled plastic. 

Bike Lube – Dry

The only non-toxic, non-flammable Dry Lube on the market. Apply to chain, wipe clean and let dry over a few minutes and you’re ready to ride. Works best in dry and dusty conditions. 

  • Plant-Based and Biodegradable
  • 0% Petroleum or alcohols  
  • Fast + Smooth
  • Riding Conditions: Moderate to Dry

Bottle made from 100% Post-Consumer Recycled plastic. 

Bike Wash + Degreaser

This Bike Wash + Degreaser can do it all. Strong enough to cut through grime on your drive train and delicate enough to use on all of your components. 

  • Powerful Plant-Based Cleaner
  • Biodegradable
  • Non-Toxic

The spray bottle is made from recycled cardboard with a thin plastic bladder. It uses 70% less plastic than a traditional plastic bottle. Boom!

Winter commute with #mountainlifer @michelle_pittam ❄️🚵‍♀️🌲
@lhymnedestrembles.ca is no mirage. Set in the lush Laurentian forest, yet easily accessible (less than an hour and a half from Montreal), this luxurious ski-in ski-out residential resort by @groupebrivia is nestled at the foot of the Versant Soleil side of Mont Tremblant. The Tremblant region is a perennial destination for outdoor enthusiasts from around the world, and within the province, attracting 3.5 million visitors annually.
ML staff and gear partners highlight the latest jackets, boards, crampons, hoodies, insoles and bindings in alpha order. #Linkinbio to learn more!
Adventures like this one require an inspiring team. @timemmett is a longtime friend, adventure partner and extraordinary human; an explorer, pro climber, surfer, freediver—you name it. @luca.freediver is an incredibly talented freediver, fresh off breaking the Canadian national freediving record (85 metres). The fourth man on the team, @brianhockenstein, is a filmmaker and multi-talented snowboarder always ready to jump into the fray and capture the magic. - words Jimmy Martinello. #Linkinbio to learn more!
We came in search of the connection of the human spirit to both art and adventure, whether climbing from the depths of moulins and ice caves, breaking through ice while paddleboarding fjords, climbing icebergs, freediving between tectonic plates or surfing cold waves.
A thousand and one things could have gone wrong, but she made it to the top:  @mariepier.desharnais is the first Quebecois woman to climb K2.
Mountain Life is a proud member of the @printreleaf_ community. So far we've offset our print by having 1,737 trees reforested since joining in 2019! 🌲
GUESS WHAT! It's FRIDAY! Here's a flick to kick off the weekend for all you warriors.
