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.
