For the past two years running, Velo Magazine has done head-to-head ratings of all the top chain lubricants on the market. Melted paraffin wax treatments beat them all. Our Runaway Bike HOT TUB is the easiest way to experience this same
melted paraffin wax lubrication treatment. You no longer have to melt wax in a slow-cooker or risk ruining a nice pot. Simply put your chain in the HOT TUB and heat the entire container in a water bath on your stove. With our combination of paraffin and other lubricants, your chain will be the cleanest and quietest it can be. People have attempted to get the same lubrication as paraffin with messy wet squeeze-bottle lubricants, but none come close to the real thing.
We know that it is more work to remove, clean, and lubricate your chain… but if you want to do it right (and enjoy tinkering), there’s no better way to keep your bike happy.
Each HOT TUB application should last approximately 500 miles, depending on riding conditions. Each HOT TUB should treat your chain 5 or more times.
*** NOTE: Be sure to watch the entire boiling process closely. Don’t let all of the water in your water bath completely boil away while the lubricants are melting. This can result in the tub itself melting into the pot.

The easiest way to give your bike chain a full melted-paraffin wax lube. Remove the chain from your bike, place it in the HOT TUB, and heat the entire container in a water-bath on your stove-top.
We recommend that you do a professional-grade hot paraffin lube once in the spring and once again in the fall, supplementing between treatments with a standard wax “squeeze bottle” type lube. Your bike will thank you.
Professional bike technicians have known for years that nothing lubricates and repels dirt better than paraffin… not to mention much cleaner than oil and grease products. It’s always been a messy involved process until the Runaway Bike HOT TUB. Add speed to your ride with molten paraffin wax.
Normal road and trail dirt does not stick to a chain treated with the HOT TUB. Your chain is left clean to the touch (that’s right, no more chain-grease tattoos!). Advanced additives extend lubrication while providing additional protection against moisture, rust, and corrosion.
