CeramicSpeed's Ultrafast Racing Chain uses a unique optimisation treatment to save watts and improve performance with unparalleled low friction. These chains are carefully selected from high-quality suppliers and optimised by hand in Denmark. This chain is specifically optimised for KMC 11-speed compatibility to boost the efficiency of the entire drivetrain.
CeramicSpeed UFO Racing Chains can save between 2-5 watts over a distance of 650 km/400 miles. Please note that the UFO treatment is not optimised for wet and muddy conditions, which might cause corrosion on the chain.
The Optimisation Process
The process involves a multi-step method, starting with polishing the link's sliding surfaces to remove friction-producing roughness and manufacturing imperfections. A cleaning routine follows to remove factory lube and contaminants. The chain is then infused with an optimisation blend at optimal temperatures, allowing distinct lubricating layers to work together for ultimate efficiency.
Installation and Maintenance
Installation is straightforward and similar to any other chain. Use the provided gloves and ensure the floor is covered during the process. Connect the chain using the provided link and a chain tool to shorten it to the optimal length. Ensure the cut is made so that the chain-ends are both inner plates.
To benefit from the full advantages, do not wash the chain before 650 km/400 miles. If cleaning is necessary, use a dry cloth or soft brush. If the chain is removed, reinstall it in the same direction. In light showers, apply UFO Drip Chain Coating and allow it to dry before riding. In heavy showers, cover the chain in protective grease to protect it while maintaining performance.
