Hey,
I'm on a tight budget and is there any other cheap alternatives to propper chain lube? I've worked out that Engin Oil designed for cars are cheaper than what i buy for my bike, is there any chance of using that?

If you cut motor oil 1:2 with mineral spirits (1 part motor oil to two parts mineral spirits), apply it the night before you ride, and wipe the surface of the chain clean with a rag before you ride, the oil will penetrate beter and will attrack a lot less dirt (because the surface, where the lub is not needed, is clean and dry).
