I can't seem to find any Pedro's Extra Dry. Maybe it's been discontinued. Does anyone who used to use this, have a satisfactory alternative they could suggest?
Thanks.
Finish Line makes some Dry lubes and Wax lubes that may fit your need.

I just use Pedro's Ice Wax. Basically the same stuff.

Lolcat is a composite of two words, "lol" and "cat". "Lol" stands for "Laugh out Loud" or "Laughing out Loud"; hence, lolcats are intended to be funny and to include jokes

IIRC, Pedro's went out of business. Is this correct?

Thread surfing and posting to the wrong post. A first for me and fun to think about.
I bet the Pedro's is good stuff. I like all their products. I wish I new where to find it and ditto on the Finish Line. I thought I was able to get that at the Sports Authority, or even Walmart.
Alternatively I haven't used a dry lube in awhile. This past year I tried my hand at making a homebrew of one part 10w40 motor oil to two parts mineral spirits. It works well. It gets dirty and needs to wiped with a dampened in mineral spirits rag followed by dry rag for the first three rides. There after so long as I ride in dry conditions or near dry it stays pretty clean and nice in that area at least for me. so I in effect don't lube too often this time of year. now I am babbling...lol.

They are still around, although there was a restructuring of the company: http://www.bicycleretailer.com/product-tech/2012/06/07/pedros-emerges-leaner#.Ue8NDkjn-os

Looks like the really trimmed the product line when they restructured. Ice Wax is the dry one indeed: http://pedros.com/products/clean-and-lube/lubricants-and-grease/
