Best chain lube via MCN this week

23 products tested this week, both Wax and oil based general lube.

Turns out they recommend using general lube as opposed to wax (which I thought was better if sprayed on the inside of the chain so that it gets 'flung' outwards).

Anyway - the winner was something called 'Wurth high performance dry chain lube' £6.98 for 500ml (contact 0870 - 5987841) and after a quick mootch here is some web info:

(select - 'catalogue' then 'motorcycles' and 'bikeline' from the two boxes near the category).

Best 'budget buy' was Putoline DX11 Synth racing chain lube but, the difference in price between these two is only 63p so I'm not quite sure how they work that out!!!

Gotta admit I'm struggling to find dealers for both...the only one I've found so far is John's of Romford !!!

Happy Lubeing -
