EN: What does Effetto Mariposa do? Our product range includes, among other things, bicycle torque wrenches, the first synthetic-latex tire sealant and visco-elastic frame protection. All very technical items, but without an evident relation… or not? In reality, as for the butterfly effect (“Effetto Mariposa” in a mix of Italian and Spanish) – where small changes lead to major consequences – the ca

use-effect relation is there but it’s not that obvious. From the moment we became Effetto Mariposa, all output has emanated from the simple need for better products for our own use. Our challenge was to never emulate, but to always either innovate or improve upon something already available. IT: Che cosa fa Effetto Mariposa? Diverse cose… tra cui chiavi dinamometriche per ciclismo, il primo sigillante in lattice sintetico e protezioni adesive visco-elastiche per telaio. Sono prodotti molto tecnici ed apparentemente diversi tra loro. Che cosa li accomuna? Così come nell’effetto farfalla (“Effetto Mariposa” in un mix di italiano e spagnolo) – dove piccoli cambiamenti provocano grandi conseguenze – la relazione causa-effetto esiste, ma non è così ovvia ad un primo esame. Dal momento in cui creammo Effetto Mariposa, tutto è stato ispirato dalla semplice necessità di prodotti migliori per il nostro uso. La nostra sfida è stata quella di mai emulare, ma sempre innovare o migliorare quanto disponibile.

Wax lubrication, minus the equipment.
Chain Care XS is our entry-level chain-care kit: everything it takes to bring a chain back to bare metal and protect it with wax.

1️⃣ DEGREASE — Allpine Extra. Spread it on the chain and cogs: use Cog Brush to reach the gaps between chain links and sprockets, making sure the degreaser gets to all the moving parts.
2️⃣ RINSE — Allpine Extra rinses off with water: brush chain and sprockets with Cog Brush while you rinse, so that no oily film is left behind.
3️⃣ DRY — Completely. Wax bonds to bare metal, not to water.
4️⃣ WAX — Flowerpower Wax. One drop per link, ~600 km per application, no PTFE. Biodegradable

After the first waxing there's no degreasing to redo: wipe the chain, re-drip when it gets louder, ride.

A puncture during your gravel ride doesn't wait for you to find your tools.

Tappabuco lives inside your handlebar or bottom bracket, plug already loaded in its fork — pull it out, plug the tyre, keep riding.

Two sizes, one for each kind of puncture: → Tappabuco 1.5: for smaller cuts, road and gravel tyres → Tappabuco 3.5: for bigger gashes, mtb and aggressive gravel.

11–13 g. High-density silicone body, stainless steel fork. Kits include tool + 5 plugs.

No stress if your gravel bike doesn't have spare room in the saddle bag. Espresso Strap Lungo does the job instead.
45 cm of polypropylene webbing, a secondary hook-and-loop strap for stability over rough terrain, and an anti-slip/anti-scratch pad where it meets the frame. 24 g total.

It straps your CO2/Espresso cartridge, spare tube, multi-tool, or packable vest — externally, securely, out of the way but easy to access.

Your wheels are lying to you. 🤫

That annoying rattling from your valve? The slight vibration you feel through your carbon rims at speed? Your high-end wheels are hiding their true potential — and most riders don't even know it.

Meet the Shelter Wheel Kit by Effetto Mariposa 🦋 — 35 ultra-thin visco-elastic washers that solve two problems you didn't think had a solution:

🔇 Valve silencer — Each washer fits snugly around the valve stem, locking it silently in place. No more rattling on high-profile rims. No more unwanted movement or vibration. Nearly invisible, incredibly effective. And if you need to pull the valve out and re-insert it? The silencing effect stays put.

⚖️ Wheel balancer — You'd never drive a sports car with unbalanced wheels. So why ride your carbon wheelset without balancing them? Typical wheel imbalance ranges from 4 to 12 grams — enough to feel it at speed. With the Shelter Wheel Kit and a simple truing stand, you can dial in perfect balance in just a few minutes per wheel.

✅ Eliminates valve noise, especially on deep-section rims ✅ Fine wheel balancing for max performance ✅ Visco-elastic material absorbs and reduces vibrations ✅ Made in Italy 🇮🇹 | Re-sealable bag keeps unused washers fresh

Small kit. Big difference.

😖 The damage is already happening. You just can't see it yet.

Carbon, titanium, steel, aluminium — every frame takes the same punishment. Stone chips on the down tube, chain slap on the chainstay, cable rub on the top tube. Slow, invisible, cumulative. By the time it's visible, prevention is no longer an option.

🛡️Protecting your frame isn't vanity. It's about preserving a significant investment — and riding with full confidence in every component.

✅ A layer of transparent film costs little. A new frame does not. Protect now.

→ Learn what's really happening to your frame and how to address it effectively. Full guide here: 🔗 https://www.effettomariposa.eu/blogs/tech-news/how-to-protect-your-frame-from-stone-chips-and-cable-rub-and-why-it-matters
