in 40,000 miles you're going to have spent the best part of £4000 on fuel alone, another £1200 on tyres and hundreds more on insurance

don't know about others but to me, making a saving of the cost of replacement chain/sprockets over 40,000 miles because they "only" lasted 20k isn't worth the hassle of cleaning **** off the back of the bike every time i go out...

dry lube: it lubricates, it's dry, it doesn't fling everywhere
