Proper way to lube chain. Clean the chain anyway you want. Start at master link continue one drop on every link until you get back to the master.

Well, I still do it pretty much like that, just with a plastic bottle instead of something stolen from the Tin Woodsman.

The wet weather and humid ice chest environment are hard on chains….don’t forget to occasionally clean and lube your bottle opener. :wink:

With all the rain and associated growth there has been an abundance of reeds, etc in the jockey wheels and cassete in the drivetrain. Using the poker a lot lately when cleaning the drivetrain.

Also this plant, adenostoma fascisculatum, commonly called Chamise, or Greasewood. Yep, GREASEwood! You wouldn’t believe how it made my brake squeal! Had to remove the wheel and clean it out with a thin knife blade. A few hard stops later it was back to normal.
