    I now use some oddball stuff that actually very much like a solvent on its inital aplication, so it cleans then drys out to form a tough waxy surface and works bloody great, its used to be called ELF but now renamed Total.

    Could be incorrect application.

    Too much

    Not enough setting time after application.
    I have been careful in applying it. It never did like this with previous lubes. Damn I don't remember what it was! Thanks for any suggestions

    I found an easy fix, buy a scooter, no chain.

My wife's bike has no such issues as she uses a wax on the chain.
    With an oiler the chain is always easier to clean.
    its a pros/cons thing.
    You have it set to drip to much. Have them on 2 bikes and neither dip oil.

    Good point. Or belt drive. But that does not invalidate your basic point - We. Are. All. Crazy. I mean - two wheels? how ever do we stay upright?

    There is no need for that fancy geometry stuff. Just go about my roundabout, it seems to go on forever.

    How come you buggers always spray shit loads on the outside of the links? The lube is for the O rings.
