TNOSE_E Posted April 7, 2009 Share No, no , no. The question here is rather which lube is best....... Road or MTB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreZA Posted April 7, 2009 Share Every time you clean the bike which should be before every ride. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daxiet Posted April 7, 2009 Share Yup, I try lube my chain before every ride (MTB). Use Squirt. (Road) - every so often, much more forgiving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christopher Brunsdon Posted April 7, 2009 Share One question, should one use a a chain cleaner or do you just clean it off with degreaser? Asking as I've screwed up my motorbikes chain by never cleaning it and need to replace it after 15'000km. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNOSE_E Posted April 7, 2009 Share I put the chain on the webber to burn nice and clean. Then re-lube..... Just don't let it touch your meat.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christopher Brunsdon Posted April 7, 2009 Share Could just leave my bike in kitchen and tell the maid under no circumstances must she clean the chain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
