Hanseline is the German company Gessert & Sohn, operating since 1947 in Hilden, North Rhine-Westphalia, specializing in the manufacture of lubricants, oils, and maintenance products for bicycles, motorcycles, and mechanical equipment. Founded just after World War II as an industrial lubricant producer, the company has evolved over the decades into one of Europe's leading bicycle care brands, trusted by professional bicycle mechanics and serious amateur cyclists alike.
Over Seven Decades of Experience
From its earliest days, Hanseline worked closely with bicycle manufacturers and technical specialists, allowing the brand to precisely tailor its product formulas to the realities of bicycle mechanics. This approach has resulted in a portfolio of approximately 400 products today, covering every aspect of bicycle maintenance. All manufacturing takes place exclusively in Germany, adhering to strict quality and chemical composition standards. The company's own logistics facility in Hilden — a three-level high-bay warehouse with a capacity of 120,000 liters — ensures efficient distribution to customers worldwide.
Key Products
The Hanseline portfolio spans several core categories. Chain oils are available in multiple variants: MTB OIL with graphite for mountain and downhill riders (wash-resistant, with exceptional lubrication under emergency conditions thanks to the graphite additive), Chain Wax as a dry chain lubricant for road cyclists, and a bio-oil with plant-based ingredients for environmentally conscious users. G-90 precision oil is a multi-purpose fluid for derusting, lubrication, water displacement, and corrosion protection — the cycling equivalent of a well-known multi-function lubricant. Assembly greases prevent seatposts and bolts from seizing. Silicone grease protects rubber components and frame lacquer. Hydraulic oils (HLP 10) serve front and rear suspension systems. Chain cleaners paired with degreasing fluid complete the maintenance program with a thorough post-ride cleaning stage.
Hanseline for Military and Outdoor Use
In military and outdoor environments, Hanseline lubricants reach users of off-road, tactical, and survival bicycles, where drivetrain maintenance under field conditions has direct operational relevance. Regular lubrication of the chain, derailleur, and cables is critical to vehicle reliability during extended off-road missions or survival activities. German lubricant manufacturers have a well-earned reputation in Poland — a product from Hilden is a guarantee of durability and proven chemical composition.
