Ultrasonic Chain Optimisation is an end to end bicycle chain optimisation program developed by the Muc-Off Drivetrain Research Laboratory in Poole, Dorset, England.

This latest innovation from Muc-Off brings pro-peloton power to your bike. The system uses Ultrasonic Tanks which are designed to clean and lube your chain, using the same technology and process that Muc-Off used for the best racers and teams on the planet, producing unbeatable performance gains.

Muc-Off has been optimising chains for the pro-peloton for nearly a decade, supporting teams to reach the pinnacle of the sport. Whether it’s the world’s fastest race lube Ludicrous AF, LOPS their Lightweight Oversized Pulley Wheel developed for Mikel Landa at the Tour de France, or the new Ultrasonic Tanks – we think every rider deserves to experience pro-level drivetrain optimisation.

That’s why we have invested in the system and are extremely happy to now offer this service to our customers in house, at our workshop in Southampton.

It’s a common misconception that a new chain is going to be faster than a used one. This is rarely the case, especially if that used chain has been optimised.

We offer optimisation for new and old chains.

Heating, time and science.

For the lubrication process, Ludicrous AF or Hydrodynamic 2.0 lube are gently heated to the precise temperature required to create the optimum viscosity for the lube to penetrate deep into all contact points within the chain links.

The lubricants themselves contain organic friction modifiers, which with their polarised heads and non-polarised tails, attach themselves to either side of the base oil’s surface to form a low-friction shear plane. It’s this combination of formulation and application which reduces friction, increases the amount of watts making it through your drivetrain, and to your rear wheel.

The result? More speed!

The best grime killer in the business! The High-Performance Ultrasonic Chain Cleaner is a professional-strength cleaner that gives chains a deeper clean than ever before. It quickly breaks down the stickiest oils, grease and grime, giving your chain a complete refresh. It’s the first step in improving chain efficiency, by leaving a spotless, friction-free surface for your new Muc-Off lube to work its magic on – so your drivetrain works more efficiently, for longer!

Hydrodynamic lube strikes the perfect balance between speed and durability, so you can go full gas for longer. Hand blended in the UK, Muc-Off used a synergistic blend of esters combined with aerospace-quality oil lubrication and ground-breaking extreme pressure additives, to create a high-strength, film-forming lubricant, that prevents metal-to-metal wear at peak performance, no matter how hard you’re pushing!

Tested and refined over the last three years by the industry’s leading tribologists, Ludicrous AF has been pro-peloton-approved for taking chain optimisation to an entirely new level. Thanks to Muc-Off’s epic state-of-the-art R&D facility, the Muc-Off boffins have created a true masterpiece – an ultra-low-friction, highly durable lube which allows you to go harder and faster for longer than ever before.
