Keeping your bike greener

The British manufacturer Green Oil is going for "nomen est omen": There are no harmful substances in the lubrication and cleaning products, everything is based on plant-based content. The Green Oil products are now available from distributor Indian Summer, where new tire material is also rolling into the portfolio.

greenoil

Greener lubrication and care
The concept of environmental protection runs through the entire Green Oil range: used pet bottle caps and tubes are recycled for the cap of the Green Clean bicycle cleaner, the brush handle of the Bicycle Brush is made from FSC wood and the store displays are made from used pallets. The pump spray is charged using muscle power and not propellant gases, and thanks to the 5-liter containers, the lubricants and cleaning agents can be refilled in the bike store. The cleaning and lubricating agents themselves are plant-based and contain no PTFE or petrochemicals.

tannus

Puncture-proof on the road
In addition to the Green Oil products, distributor Indian Summer will also be adding Tannus tires to its portfolio. The Korean manufacturer says goodbye to the inner tube and opts for a polymer foam that is tread, carcass and tire volume in one. The solid rubber tires fit on conventional hook rims for tubular and clincher tires. The non-flat tires are available in various everyday bike dimensions and numerous bright colors.
