EDIT: I made a comment using the term "snake oil"; I was mostly referring to the price of the lube, compared with lots of other options. I've used it, and didn't see/feel any difference vs. ProLink.

Poor choice of words on my part; no offense meant.

Looks like it would be good with crusty bread and fresh ground pepper.

A former neighbor, CX racer discovered that anti-freeze sprayed on shoes will shed mud effectively. He was going to bottle store bought anti-freeze into 2 ounce containers and sell them for 15 bucks a pop.

If you ride in the wet it's awesome. Lasts forever. But wipe your chain post ride.

How/where did this thread start - somehow I missed the beginning. What brand chain lube are you all talking about?

Too Tall (Josh) created and manufactures it. You use much less on the chain and a bottle lasts a while. Call me at the shop if interested. Savile Road stocks it.
