...we have applied Green Oil using the recyclable nozzle on the recyclable HDPE plastic bottle, and have found it to smell somewhat soapy and to lubricate the chain effectively with a post-lube riding sensation...

...use ecological chain lube (green-oil.net)..... 

- 'Eco Hero' by Danny Carnegie in the Telegraph Magazine, 10th May 2008, page 77.

     
The Observer Magazine

As if cycling could get any more ecologically virtuous, we have found Green Oil for bicycle chains...It keeps those two wheels moving without the petrochemicals or Teflon.

Dirt Magazine

...the point is, that this stuff is as green as you'll get. Unlike most other chain lubes this one doesn't contain any nasty petrochemicals and it's fully biodegradable....As they say, every little helps.

- New Product review in Dirt Magazine, March 2008, page 73.

     
Singletrack Magazine

...Despite being biodegradable there's no worries about it not hanging about long enough to protect your chain. In use the oil is easily applied accurately thanks to the nozzle top and stood up to everything but the wettest winter rides without need for reapplication.

..I've used Green Oil on a variety of bikes since early this year, so it's seen off the tail end of the winter and the start of the summer... - it works as well if not better than the gear oil I usually employ...It works as well as regular toxic lubes too, keeping you spinning easier and greener than ever...

Green Living Review

Aside from being environmentally friendly it lubricates as it should and I certainly think that my oil for the bikes in future will be nothing but Green Oil.

Soloszabi

What`s happend after 6 weeks and 750km all conditions riding (NONONO... I have ridden much more during the last 6 weeks, 750km is completed with my Unit)?

Honestly? Nothing! There was no need taking care of my chain and chainlube, because Green Oil works brilliant. The lube is one of the best all conditions chain lube what I have ever used.

- Review by Solozabi Bandli of 'Bicycle', Richmond Upon Thames.

     
Carbon Neutral Expeditions

Many thanks to the guys at GREEN OIL, for helping us with this fantastic environmentally sound lubricant for our bikes. It worked a treat. I think our 1200 mile cycle through the baking heat of southern France and the driving rain we encountered in Spain really put the product to the test. Not a squeak out of the bikes. Thumbs up
