I...Interesting how different the results can be. I've been using Chain-L for quite some time and been generally pretty happy with it. It does have to be used very sparingly and the chain needs to be left alone for 15-20 min. for the lube to soak in. The chain should be wiped off of any excess lube before the ride, but I found out that it also has to be wiped again after the first ride. Other than that, I find Chain-L at least acceptable.<br /><br />Now, I'm thinking that it may be the climate. Maybe here in Massachusetts (or New England in general) where our summer is humid there is less dust in the air? Your picture shows a very messy chain. I can't imagine picking up so much dust on just one ride. But again, we don't have that many dusty gravel roads around here.bostonbybikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16002562971047930168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12831567.post-35718169647703405022016-05-24T21:48:36.382-05:002016-05-24T21:48:36.382-05:00I found Chain-L to be the perfect winter lube.

However, after some time not being used/ridden, it dried out and became"a sticky mess." Almost impossible to clean off. So, I would recommend it to winter commuters on asphalt. And at the end of winter, throw away that chain and put on a new one. . . .RChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15839458941395095114noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12831567.post-66125175439786956012016-05-24T03:45:11.046-05:002016-05-24T03:45:11.046-05:00I second your opinion on the Chain-L lube.

I tried it for a month and then gave up on it.<br />Really liking your experiments with different lubes (in a different context that could sound weird). There are so many different brands and kinds of lubes that its hard to know what is good and what is a waste of dollars and time.Danielhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07681918872264975695noreply@blogger.com
