Adding EnduranceChip to SecretBlend can permanent increase the distance between re-waxing by as much as 2.5X (up to 750km) while still being as fast as the top wet lubricants and significantly faster than any dry lubricant. One of the secrets behind Secret Chain Blend is that it's a mix of 4 unique types of wax and not just Paraffin like most other hot wax products. This blend of waxes along with our proprietary WS2 has kept the Secret Chain Blend on top of the ZeroFrictionCycling charts for the last 3 years with many competitors reformulating to get close, but none of them able to beat it. The 4 wax mix has allowed SILCA to blend what we felt was the best overall mix of high performance, dirt resistance, and application longevity, but over the years as we've worked with professional gravel athletes, WorldTour teams, Olympic medalists and more, the request has come up over and over again to custom formulate waxes for specific events or situations. Rather than make an endless number of custom blends, early in 2024 we started shipping two different wax additive kits to our athletes and teams for testing new formulations based on their events and experiences. The challenge in formulating waxes is that the fastest, most exotic waxes, tend not to last as long per application, while the most durable, longest lasting waxes tend not to be as fast. Rather than blending new and custom formulations for each event, we gave the power to formulate to the athletes, and the results they came back to us with have been incredible with more than 100 victories in WorldTour, Lifetime Grand Prix, the Olympics and many more! This new system puts the optimization process in the hands of the athlete. Want a training wax that lasts 600km between waxings, you've got it. Want a race wax that's won multiple Tour de France stages, you've got it. Want the most insane TT wax for your 40km TT, you've got it. Internally we started out calling the process 'Wax Doping' but with so much exposure to world class athletes we've decided to call the process 'Wax Optimization'. Introducing, SpeedChip and EnduranceChip, wax optimization agents that allow you to blend the perfect wax for your needs.

It does make the chain more slippery. Normally when I use the regular Silca wax my chain will slip on my sram twelfth gear cog. It does that for maybe a mile, than it goes away. When adding the chip to the silca my chain will slip on that same high gear cog for about 20 miles. So that means I cant use that high gear for awhile. But I am using a SRAM SX Eagle, 12-speed. Those are not the best. And the bike has done this since new, with a perfectly adjusted derailleur. If I use a oil lube it never slips, but I hate oil lubes. They are messy and wear your chain out fast. I have 2200 miles on an Sram XX1 chain with Zero wear. I checked wear with 2 different chain checkers. My other bike chain wore completely out with oil lube at about 1400 miles.

Honestly, I bought this by accident, but when I researched it I decided to give it a try.I’ve been on a heavy ride streak and endurance wax sounded like a good fit. I added it to my wax mix and have been very happy. Love that wax feel.Silica continues to deliver!

My first chain with the Endurance additive went for 600 km, a PB for me. All withOUT the benefit of intermittent application of drip wax. Additionally, this distance came at the golden ratio making the added wax life even more impressive.

I was getting about 250 miles per waxing without the Endurance chip, which isn't too bad since I have two chains, but it was still a little shorter than I was hoping for. I'm currently still on my first Endurance waxing with a bit more than half the chip added to the existing wax in the pot, but so far it seems like it may have doubled the distance I can expect out of a wax. I just checked and I'm currently at 549.4 miles on this waxing and it still seems quite quiet. I'll probably swap to the second chain sometime soon on general principle, but so far this seems pretty good. I think they suggest there's a

Great additive to the already superb Silca Chain Waxing system.

I’ve been extremely pleased with the Silca wax system. I’ve added the endurance chip to the Secret Wax blend, per the manufacturer’s instructions and everything seems to be going smoothly and quietly.
