RE: chain lube

i use white lithium lube, does not fling and you know where you put it on so you dont over lube it. it will attract a bit more dust than say a chain wax but that just makes me take care of my chain more.

RE: chain lube

maxima chain wax
Penetration is excellent it does make the chain look dirtier once the wax sets in

RE: chain lube

RE: chain lube

I use Kerosene on a rag to wipe the chain clean, then 90W gear lube on another rag and wipe along the inside of the chain. My chains last a long time. Been doing this for 15-20 years.

RE: chain lube

I have been using Maxima for a few years. I had a mechanic recommend it. I second shraz, that it puts the tan haze on the links, but when is the last time you really admired the cain on someone's bike??
