Re: Cleaning chain with kerosine?
Belt drive and shaft drive are nice and clean, quiet, and maintenance free to a very large degree. But on the other hand it is really hard to change the gearing if you don't like what you have. That's where chain drive shines momentarily before it gets all dirty.

Re: Cleaning chain with kerosine?
Lowes and a couple other big box centers carry Du Pont w/teflon. I think Ace Hardware is another but who knows. Du Pont also make a chain lube with Teflon but have never tried it. The regular stuff works so well that I stick with it.
I actually take a nice ride South of the border to get my Du Pont because it is 99% impossible to find in the GWN. A great way to spend a day. |
