so what chain cleaner and lube does everyone use? and can i buy the stuff at the autoparts store?
Hello new guy,
Just so you know, we do have a SEARCH function here on the board.
Type in chain lube there and you will be greeted by a host of entries on the subject.
I won't harangue you about not doing a search there first, but someone is apt to chime in soon and tell you to SEARCH FIRST.
Wait, I guess I just did it.
:)
I use PJ1 black label chain lube.
Some folks like regular motor oil.
Read all the info and then decide.
Good luck,
Trwhouse
Motul Chain Wax.
I hate fling!
+1 to PJ1 Black...turns into a nice goop...little to no fling there
Clean all the muck off with WD40 and a rag then apply a chain wax. Apply to the top of the lower chain run and centrifugal force will spread it, every 600 miles seems to be univerally accepted as best practice.
cool thanks for all the help guys. sorry about the not search. a couple of beers in and i totally forgot my forum etiquette.
