Bikepro service is so far the best. At least they are patient enough to explain. KH Cycle so-so only.. Gotta pay Rm2.00 parking somemore.. |

QUOTE(majorsinbad @ Nov 29 2011, 10:35 AM) Ohhh thats how you Like a posting in forum ... After every off road ride, here's what I usually do. Degrease the chain and gear with a degreaser (I use a citrus-based degreaser, any brand should do), coat my chain with a thin layer of WD-40 to displace any moisture, rinse the chain thoroughly with soap, lubricate the chain (I use Finish Line's Dry Lube). As for my forks and rear shocks, I lubricate my fork stanchions with silicone spray (don't use normal lube as it may crack your rubber seals!). Just my 2 cents! Just wanna ask ....about bike cleaning ... Each time after cleaning your bike do you degrease and relube your chains ? Or relube enough? I just learned that you can use WD40 (which is cheaper) to degrease ...rather than use a more expansive Degreaser ..ie Finish Line stuffs .... |

Great tip!Some questions: Q1: In our weather and muddy condition ..is it ok to use Finish Line's Dry Lube? I have both that Dry Lube and Amoils Chain Lube...so am not sure which one is better to use .... Q2: What silicone spray do you use? Muc Offs? I ve been using the lubes on the stachions ..I thought it was ok |

I think any lube would do. Just don't use KY Jelly...

@majorsinbad: Thanks mate!
If you cycle in wet weather (muddy/wet), I'd definitely recommend Finish Line's Wet Lube. ![]() As for silicone spray. I'm using this one from "3-In-One". ![]() This post has been edited by TechnoDude94: Nov 30 2011, 01:32 PM |

Degreaser, usually use diesel if no one is looking and a home made organic degreaser (given) otherwise. I use most any aerosol lube in a can, motorcycle based ones too to lube the chain. If not it would be engine oil Sillycon spray same I use which ever is the cheapest, even the liquid ones they market for car windows. Sorry forgot to say that I am a roadie and am assembling or in the process of collecting parts (cheap) to build an old Scotts DJ bike. Currently waiting to buy a 'new' stem, 180mm or larger disc (with suitable caliper mount) , handle bar and expanding fork plug. Any leads would be good, especially for the expanding fork plug since I dont really want to cut the steerer tube on the bike just yet. Whats already on the bike a) 2nd hand Cannondale stem b) 2nd hand bar c) Rockshox Sektor U-turn fork (new) d) BB dunno what using it because it spins freely and quietly e) Crank dunno what cheap Shimano stuff, only the granny gear is slightly worn I may drill it out and replace that. f) Sram X-7 9spd groupset, cassette is 11-34. (new) g) Bengal Helix 3.0 brakes with token 160mm disc, disc are 2nd hand plan to change brake fluid to 5.1 h) cable housings using the what ever came with the bike i) tyres hmmmm no label road going Kenda's which need to be levered on j) 27.2 X 400mm seatpost (new) k) a no brand seat (all day comfortable) zero adjustment the majority of the items are bought off of BBS (COD only), and bike shops that shall not be named. I walk out of shops if I dont like the look on their dirty little spoilt face |
