Prevents rust
Great for bike workshops, large and small.
PTFE accumulates in the environment, and people's body tissue.
Mechanics get the stuff on their hands. We've had bicycle mechanics call us who got sick from using lubricants from our toxic competitors.
Things on your skin, especially oily based products seep in and can cause harm.

To help save people from cancer, dermatitis, and to protect the environment from the PTFE sprayed every day in bike workshops, we created the Green Oil EcoSpray Lube.

What is this for?

Light lubrication, getting rid of water after cleaning your bike.
Suspension forks - if they're old and worn out, and you can't be bothered to get them properly serviced, get some more life from them with EcoSpray Lube.
Hard to reach bits - brake leavers, moving parts on dérailleurs, and more!

Ideal if you want to stop a squeaky chain super fast in a rush.

EcoSpray Lube is skin safe, so if you do get it on your skin, it won't make you ill. It's a natural, plant based formula.

We used to make the CF3 Re-usable lube spray which was was great, but required the cap to be pumped up and down numerous times. Many people in bike workshops were not prepared to spend time doing this - they prefer the convenience and speed of an aerosol.
Further, the company which made one of the essential parts for it stopped making it. So as the CF3 was phased out, we're phasing EcoSpray Lube in.

How is Green Oil EcoSpray Lube green?

Other spray lubes out there contain PTFE and petroleum. They don't even bother with proper recycling information! This is crazy, as every fluid used on a bike ends up in the environment, and usually on a mechanic's hands. And your hands, and in your garden. Most street drains lead to rivers too.

PTFE creates a carcinogen in its production.
PTFE accumulates in the food chain, after your bike chain. We don't use PTFE
Petrochemicals often do harm in the environment and aquatic life

We therefore don't use PTFE or petrochemicals, only natural ingredients.

The fluid content of Green Oil EcoLube Spray is 100% biodegradable.

All our ingredients are sustainable sourced. We use plant based ingredients, natural molecules with similar long chain molecules to those found in petrochemicals. The mixture used is sticky enough to stay on the chain, but not so sticky excess dirt sticks to it.

Recycling information

Green Oil UK Limited will pay you 20p in cash for your old Green Oil chain lube bottle. Selected retailers will refill your bottle for a 10p or 20p discount. This concept is widespread in most countries where deposit bottles are used for beer and other drinks, but lagging in Great Britain currently. We're bringing back! See us at the next trade show for your 20p in cash! You can of course though recycle your Green Oil bottle. The cap is made of polypropylene - plastic type 5. We're honest about it - most councils in the UK don't take plastic type five and therefore the cap. Please clean and recycle your bottle after removing the cap. Here are the recycling codes:

Reviews

Verdict: 3.75/5 A long lasting, credible alternative to heavy duty, petrochemical spray lubes.

- Michael Stenning, Seven Day Cyclist

the finest recommendation i can offer is that it just works. simply and brilliantly. just what we've come to expect from green oil.

‘Really pleased with the way this stuff works, and much nicer (fumes wise) to use than GT85 which we have all but phased out now!’
