Gave only four stars to Finish Line Dry lube, because it needs wax along with Teflon. No problem: Brand X is a dry lube with wax, so a half and half mixture gave me a perfect combination.
I rely on Finish Line Dry to keep my beach bikes operational. Use it before and after every ride. The salt and sand are brutal on all of the bike's moving parts, and FLD keeps things humming.
Its not from a sexy brand, but it just freaking works. I keep coming back to this lube because its durable in the dry and doesnt attract a lot of dirt. It will wash off pretty quick in the rain though.
After thoroughly cleaning my chain, I applied the Finish Line lube on a clean and dry chain. The first surprise was how very thin and liquidy this lube is, NOT like a typical 'oil' lubricant. You'd best hold the tip of the bottle very close to the chain as you spin the cranks backwards. That said, it seems good so far.... Not sure about the longevity of it, I've only taken a couple of rides with the first application, so I'm not sure how soon again I'll want to re-lube the chain, but so far, the chain seems to ride and shift as smooth as a baby's bottom.
I have used this product for the last three years. Does a great job of lubricating IF you can get the cap off the bottle. I'm not sure who designed the child-proof type cap, but without fail, every bottle I have purchased is impossible to open after using about half the contents. Please fix this bad design.
the product came in a plastic bag, good, cause the cap doesn't seal the top and the lube leaked out. It didn't come with a flexible tube to stick in the top ,so every time I use it , it leaks . The lube does work O K but doesn't last as long as I expected.
This is my standard day-to-day lubricant. I re-apply it every week or so, depending on the weather. Keeps things quiet and slick. It's very low viscosity, so it can be a challenge to get hard to reach areas without making a huge mess.
