Yeah im in a very dry dusty place so both of my last bikes were as such,I mean I DO lube my rides accordingly but it must be a combo of the type of dust and the type of lube being just exactly wrong,I just bought a used mtb for town cruising which was lubed enough but the deraillure snapped off so the chain must have stuck somewhere,this stuff here is like red powdery dust that turns solid when compressed,thanks though.
