Heres my final thoughts on the Boeshield T9 chainlube. Next up will be White Lightning Clean Ride. If you missed the intro video heres the link • Chainlube Comparison p... www.gofundme.c...
I love Boeshield because of how durable it is. A few key things I always do though is always wait longer than two hours. I wait at least overnight. Then I wipe off for quite a while and that usually does the trick. I go though two whole rags just to make sure. If I do that I've never noticed that it accumulates any more dirt than any other lube, but I can definitely see where white lightning works better in desert/dusty conditions.

best practice is to apply it at night and just let it sit overnight, wipe off with a thick rag in the AM before the next ride. Done. incredible stuff if you just let it dry.

Have you ever tried Squirt Dry Chain Lube? I start using it recently on both my roady and MTB and I'm very happy with it so far in dry conditions (do not have experience yet in wet condition) - Chain remains super clean and the smoothness is crazy good. I apply it every ride as I clean my bike after every ride :-)

MTBen Nice, i have tried it and I have a bottle of it at home. I found that it collected gunk as well but I dont think I was wiping the excess off properly after application. I’ll try it again and give you my thoughts on it. Cheers for the recco 👊🏼

Squirt seems to be quite tacky/sticky compared (ended up with black fine powdery substance in chain and squeaking only after riding 3 hours of slow test ride in dry weather) to Boeshield T9 which is slightly more sticky than a molten paraffin wax (hopefully will last a bit longer).

In wet conditions Squirt just runs off. You have to dry your drivetrain immediately and re-apply it, else I’d get rust. Which mitigates any longevity else gained. Have switched to Boeshield. You have to wipe off any gunk anyway, but it’s easier if wax is your lubricant.

Hey man. I found that I was getting a heap of crap built up in my jockey wheels, and front chain ring. What I do now, which seems to help. is apply the lube, run it through a few cycles, then wipe it off. Then wipe off the chainring, and jockey wheels, to remove any lube that's on them. Seems to work for me anyway.

Ive recently been using Fuchs motorbike chain lube. Its ok, but seems to not last as long. But just in general, stops dirt building up on the chainring.

Johannes Nilsen haha its a bummer. Its great durable stuff but i got no time for gunky drivetrains. I’m testing the Squirt lube right now, and next up is Rock ‘n’ Roll Holy Cow lube, it sounds promising

not tried that one, but the extreme lube(blue) worked well so far the cleanest chain lube I ever used, it cleans the chain and leaves lubricant, I used Weldtite extreme( creates ''spider webs'' all over the drive train if not wiped off properly, last long time, Muc off wet lube: can last few days, but gets a bit dirty, but nothing too extreme.

I have used T-9 for years on my mountain bike and now on the road bike. You have to clean your chain dry after applying it. It will outlast Squirt and other wax based lubes by heaps. Even in the dry areas, if you clean your chain properly, it will not pick up dirt. You'll get 100-200klm before having to reapply.

@@fishinthet123mark3 I keep my chain clean, always wipe with a cloth or something, make sur wits clean. Buy I don't know what mtb telly did. I am trying Smoove lube it's overhyped, but works decent, but gets waxy of course, but does not last super long as reviews claim, it lasts one or two long rides, depending on various things of course, but I would not let it be longer than that, so I clean and apply agian, if I did a long ride as usually on two long rides the chain will get reduced performance, the shifting performance is reduced, so I still have to stick with regular application and cleaning. But noway it will last for weeks with mud, or snow. If a really chilled ride it might last 2 or 3 rides, but my long rides 3 to 5 hours I reccomend to clean and lube.
