Is the formula biodegradable?
Unfortunately, the properties that make silicone so useful in reducing friction (inert to degradation from temperature/uv) to also stop it from biodegrading. The surfactants used to emulsify it, and all other components are biodegradable.
How often should I re-apply?
Re-apply before each ride for best results and maximum protection. You can’t beat regular maintenance to keep things running smoothly. Little and often is better than waiting and turning it in to a much bigger job! Suspension components are some of the most expensive parts on your bike so using our suspension spray will help reduce your cleaning time as the surface tension between dirt and the surface is drastically reduced whilst riding and cleaning.
Why can’t I use other protection sprays on suspension?
We would not recommend using any other kind of lube apart from a Silicon-based specific formula, which has been designed for suspension systems. Many other sprays or lubricants could actually attract more dirt and grime and their thicker viscosity could actually make the stiction a lot worse!
