Getting lube into the depths of a cleaned chain is no problem at all. Apply with a (high nap) washcloth by soaking a spot about 1 1/2" in diameter and hold it against the chain rollers while spinning the cranks. Capillary action takes the lube right in there. It avoids the over lubing that comes with the 1 drop per roller method, too. bk
BTW, I'm always amazed by all the deep theory that comes out in these chain lube threads. Keep it up, guys! |

If you put the bike on pavement (esp blacktop) with some protection under it and secure a clear plastic tarp over it I think you would get the same effect. I do that to solarize planting beds and weeds that I have pulled.

Alternatively - you could skip the whole chain lube thing by buying a really inexpensive bike from one of a few popular BBSs and rest easy knowing that the chain will easily last as long as the rest of the bike! :p
