Optimize 12-speed Pre-Waxed Chain
- In stock
Chains made in Germany!
Compatibility : Shimano and Campagnolo (except: Campagnolo 13-speed; as a replacement for SRAM Flattop chains it can work, but is not expressly recommended, the chain is slightly wider)
The chain is degreased and hot waxed by us at the factory. The chain was specially designed and produced for Optimize.
Compatibility: With ALL* 12-speed drives
Length: 118 links (suitable for all RR and gravel bikes as well as most MTBs)
Length: 126 links please request by email
*excluding: Campagnolo 13-speed and SRAM MTB Transmission
The initial hot wax treatment lasts 200-300km, after which it should be re-waxed :D
=> Why so short?! You usually state 800-1000km (RR)?
We skip the cooling process so that we can produce the chains faster, which means the mileage on the first run is slightly lower.
The chain comes with the Connex Quick Link . These can be assembled/disassembled without tools, making them perfect for anyone who uses hot wax and has to take the chain off frequently. The best thing about them is that they are reusable!

Hot or liquid wax?
Recommendation: We recommend that customers who would like to use hot wax use liquid wax. This can reduce stress if you have a spontaneous ride planned for the next day but don't have time to wax.
Liquid wax: 200-300km mileage, effort 30s, very clean
Hot wax: 800-1000km mileage, 1.5-2h time required, slightly lower friction than liquid chain wax, very clean (same)
=> Both are fully functional lubricants and can be used independently of each other (all versions are compatible with each other, a change is possible immediately).
Shipping time
We specify the shipping time as 3-5 days. Usually the package arrives much faster. However, unfortunately it can sometimes take longer during promotions :(
Which provider do you ship with?
We always ship with DHL.
Which chain wax do I need?
Graphene: Racers or riders looking for the lowest possible frictionGraphite: For the ambitious cyclist who wants to reduce friction and wearBasic: For those who want a quiet and clean chain without any frills.
