"Dry" and "Wax-based" lubricants provide
great performance while ensuring your chain
does not collect dust. Wax lubricants are best at
keeping your chain clean through self-elimination
and should therefore be re-applied frequently.
Ex: White Lightning Clean Ride
Tri Flow Superior Dry Lubricant
Wet weather conditions
Oil-Based "Wet" Lubes repel water and stay wet
once on the chain. They are the way to go in
wet weather.
Ex: Pedro's Syn Lube
Finish Line Wet Lubricrant
Mixed / All conditions
Oil-based lubricants with a lighter formulation are
able to withstand the odd rain shower by not
washing off while minimizing dust collection in drier
conditions.
Ex: Park Tools CL-1 Chain Lube
Boeshield T-9
Pro Gold Prolink Chain Lube
Long rides & Races
Since re-application may be an issue here,
high-end lubricants are designed to provide
consistent performance through the ride.
They may be oil or waxed-based, depending
on personal preference
Ex: Purple Extreme
Finish Line Ceramic Wet Lube
