Chain Lube
 
Hey there what do you guys recommend for chain lube? I had an old can of D.I.D something but i'm gonna purchase a new can tomorrow just seeing if you guys have any suggestions or a favorite product that you use? Any insight would be appreciated

Thanks, Nate

If there's a Lowe's by your house, you can pick up a can of DuPont Teflon Multi-Use Lubricant for $5.
It's all I ever use; good stuff.

i prefer the spray chain wax.

p.s., here's a little home remedy tip: chain wax is the bomb for lubricating old locks. i have old padlocks I use outdoors that get really stubborn with time and weather. i used to put wd40 in them, but that only lasts a short while. i sprayed some chain wax in them several YEARS ago, and they still open and lock like a dream.

This question will get you as many solid answers as "Which oil should I use," but here's my point-oh-two:

So long as you're lubricating every 500mi like you're supposed to, and replacing your chain and sprockets at the right times, then pretty much every chain lubricant out there is gonna do ya. You may have to use a little more with some and less with others, but you'll come out the same in the end.
