I think he does have a bit of a point. How many cyclists have access to a lbs where they can buy specialist lube and replacment chains at a low cost relative to their income? The idea that the only satisfactory way to lube a chain is a $10 bottle of lube from an lbs is absurd. There is nothing magic about two pieces of steel rubbing against each other just because they are in a bicycle chain.
