What do you all use to lube your chains with now that it's getting wet and muddy and how often do
you clean it?

Come on Dean, you know it doesn't get wet and muddy here in Laguna. Not often anyway. Dude, we have
to ride together sometime, where do you live? I'm up on Bluebird.

Back on topic, TriFlow for me as well.

around El Moro and got to get to work....later. And yes lets hook up.

Really? I've thought about trying it, but when I looked at how much gunk accumulates on my saw when
I'm cutting I decided against it.

What kind of conidtions are you riding in?

I used this all last year...might have been a contributing factor to my chain failing as well. But I
can't say for sure.

Except you're supposed to top-post the bare link, so the reader completely misses it until scrolling
down and saying "so wtf did they add?!?" and then scrolling back up.

I like Prolink for dry conditions. It drys to quickly when wet or muddy. I like Maxima for wet and
muddy. It's cosmoline based so it last's a long time.
