rusty Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 I've just used the last of a can of Wurth Dry Chain Lube on the bike so before I buy another tin, is there anything better that's worth getting instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nampus Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 I'm on my first can of S100 dry lube, always used regular chain lube before. Is it a dry lube thing that the rollers on the chain are shiny within about 300km's/180miles? Often sooner. I always used shiny rollers as an indicator that the chain needs lubing. And it seems the dry lube does not last very long. No more crap on the rear wheel, back of number plate and bottom of the tail though 👌🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marvin Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) Got some banana flavoured chain lube currently. It’s got a picture of a monkey on the can. Most appropriate really. It’s actually been pretty good. Edited June 3, 2021 by marvin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bignige Posted June 5, 2021 Report Share Posted June 5, 2021 I must be the only one who wasn't impressed with the Wurth stuff. I'm currently using xcp stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobeard Posted June 6, 2021 Report Share Posted June 6, 2021 No matter what I've tried over the years lube wise, I always end up reverting back to gear oil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpinestarhero Posted June 10, 2021 Report Share Posted June 10, 2021 I'm using a castrol racing chain lubricant. I was using the wurth stuff, but I wanst really sure when it needed redoing so I was going through loads of it. The castrol stuff seems quite good.
