Gold coloured chain lube
As a rule of thumb, I always lube my chain when it's warm i.e. after a ride, either once a week or when I've just filled the tank.
Recently tried that wax stuff on the chain but didn't like it as it was quite hard to see if you've lubed all the chain. I popped down infiniti to peruse their wares & came across Gold Lube. This seemed like a great idea as I would know if I've missed a bit when lubing the chain. WRONG! It's think & sprays everywhere. I put up some cardboard to stop it spraying all over the back wheel. After finishing lubing I looked at my driveway it was covered in gold. My side stand is now golden. After my daily commute gold has been flicked all over the back of my bike! At least I didnt' buy that white ceramic stuff as it would look like the undercoat was showing thru my paint work. |

Re: Gold coloured chain lube
you should try Wurth High Performance Dry Chain Lube this was Awarded Ride Magazines Best Buy award January 2006. I have tryed loads of different chain lubes and waxes an this has been the best by a mile, no fling off it drys clear no mess you can see where you have sprayed it for the first minute so you can see what you have done.
