For me its Squirt all year round, works well enough, clean the new chain ones, top it off later and after few rides same procedure as new chain, works great for me.

I’ve been running the Peaty’s Dry Lube, and it is very close to comparable drip wax lubes (Squirt, Smoove). It is unbelievably clean, lasts a while, and a little goes a long way. I think Peaty’s nailed this one.

Clean your chain once every month and just use a little motor oil and wipe off the excess. If you want to get fancy, get GT85 or 1-step. Use it to clean your chain and it lubes it just fine. Both these methods are super cheap and work just fine

Sand and grit gets stuck INSIDE the rollers. You can't just brush it out. Even removing the chain and shaking it in a petrol filled jar won't help. You need a jet washer and or air compressor to really flush the rollers. With the chain off you can hear and feel the grit in the chain and whether its actually clean. Otherwise all lubes you apply will just lock the grit in the chain

I have tried muc-off c3 and ebike and they both get horribly black and grimy real quick. Takes many cycles of ultrasonic clean bath to get it all clean again. Now using dry lub spray wax for motorcycles and find it does not like low temperatures but it is clean. After reading the comments Squirt do a low temperature wax so I might try that. As for using Peatys wet lube for ebikes if I was going to do that I might as well use 3in1.
@c.s.4273

Soaking a rag with motor oil (any engine oil will do) and pulling the chain through it. That's it. Repeat every week on rainy conditions and every month on dry conditions. No special expensive chain oil needed and no degreaser or anything else. Motor oil has everything needed, it works not only as a lubricant but also as a detergent and rust inhibitor, it has anti wear components, too. In winter it's thin enough and in summer thick enough due to it's viscostiy improvers it comes with when it is a multigrade oil which every motor oil nowadays is. Like I said, everything ever needed is already in motor oil included. There is no cheaper and more effective way to take care of your bicycle chain.

funny really such a straight forward process is so technical nowadays, for my road bike it's wax & will never change from that, for my mtb i would rather use a dry even in light rain as nothing sticks to it but if going Wales or something for a week or so then normally wet even if weather is dry because i am normally my the sea, for me it all depends when I have the time to clean it because i insist on a clean chain due to 40 years cycling I know how much damage can occur from parts not oiled correctly
