Maxima Racing Oils come from the powersports' world. This means their oils, fluids, and lubricants are developed to meet the high-stress applications produced by often high-output internal combustion. What this also means is that their bicycle line of products has a very high benchmark.

Best bottle ever
First of all, Maxima's tapered screw top is a thing of beauty. Sure, it seems pretty trite, but after using it and then going back to aerosol sprays or drip-applied lubes, the ease of Maxima's cap is so welcome.

The small tapered end makes it simple to hit the chain rollers, not just slop lube everywhere. And there's no cap to misplace or drop into the abyss that is the standard biker's workshop.
Clean, quiet riding
Maxima bills Chain Pro as a dry conditions chain lube, and luckily I live in the perfect testing zone, the arid, dusty Rocky Mountains. Shifts were quiet, as was pedaling. The chain stayed clean, I could rub against my bike's chain and not look like I was playing with coals.
As long as conditions were dry, I was able to get a two to three rides without really any chain noise or need for reapplication. If I was blasting through streams or got caught in the rain, the reapplication interval predictably went way down.
