Last post by Pat Conlon - Today at 12:02:40 PMQuote from: miatamarty on Today at 11:47:39 AMI see all these chain cleaner products. Are they any good or do they just cause more problems with the o-rings. Just wipe it down with a little acetone before lubing?
No, do not use acetone on your O ring chain. You will eat the rubber O rings.

Maintenance / Re: Chain Lube
Last post by FJmonkey - Today at 11:20:04 AMWell, just as I was typing, Robert beat me to the post.
I have used many brands. The super sticky/wax like is the worst. It clings to everything and is a real pain to remove the old lube, so it normally just remains and collects more dirt. I now use Triflo (or similar). A light coat every tank or 2. The old oil cleans off easy and it does not cake up inside the drive shaft pocket.

Maintenance / Re: Chain Lube
Last post by RPM - Robert - Today at 10:27:27 AMWe use this and many other like Pat and Mike. We are getting 25-30k miles on a set of chain and sprockets. Apply after a ride. It isn't as thick as standard chain lube so there is a lot of gunk build up and the teflon in it does very well with the o/x ring chains.

Last post by miatamarty - Today at 09:46:04 AMOk, so what's the latest and greatest in chain lube. My last 2 bikes had belt drive and driveshaft, so I'm ignorant.
