Let me just say upfront that I have tried to use the Search facility but try as I might I couldn't find a relevant thread.

I use the bike for commuting and I just wanted to know some alternatives to Finish Line Wet lube that Im using currently. What I hate about it is that literally days after lubricating the chain it accumulates that black, diguisting buildup of gunk, which obviously gets transfered to about every single part of the drivetrain. Is there some other product to keep the chain lubricated for dry/wet conditions without having to worry about the buildup?

Oh, and is WD40 recommended as a CLEANER/DEGREASER? I know already that it's not recommended as a lube but what about cleaning?

Thanks!
