The chain does not need to be thrown away; it simply transitions into a standard premium chain. To continuously maintain your elite watt savings and protect the drivetrain from wear, you should thoroughly wipe the chain clean and apply a premium liquid wax top-off coating, such as \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,11\" data-index-in-node=\"450\"\u003eCeramicSpeed UFO Drip Chain Lubricant\u003c\/b\u003e, directly onto the rollers after every few rides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,12\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"11,12\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCan I safely ride this specialized UFO chain in wet or muddy weather conditions?\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,13\"\u003eThe industrial UFO factory treatment is engineered explicitly to yield maximum possible watt savings in clean, dry, high-performance racing conditions. While a light splash or brief shower will not ruin the chain, riding through heavy downpours, muddy singletrack sectors, or washing your machine with aggressive degreasers will accelerate the breakdown of the wax coating, dropping the initial optimization window below the 600-km mark. If your racing route involves wet terrain, ensure you dry the drivetrain immediately post-ride and reapply a fresh coating of UFO Drip fluid to seal the metal surfaces from moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"11,15\"\u003eAuthentic Local Stock – Skip Port Surcharges \u0026amp; Customs Hassles\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"11,16\"\u003eAvoid the extreme frustration of buying small premium upgrades and structural components from international online warehouses, only to face weeks of shipping delays, exorbitant courier freight minimums, or unexpected port clearance hold-ups.
