I am happy with chain life so will just keep on doing what I am doing.
At the bike night on Friday I noticed a lot of bikes with very clean chains - guessing a lot of em only come out to play in the Summer for a few months.
Back in the day it was linklyfe heated in an old non stick saucepan using a camping gas stove, after cleaning with paraffin. Would do that every 1000 miles or so and in between times brush some gear oil on the chain.
These days I use some stuff called XCP Professional chain lube which is compatible with O / X ring chains, and is not supposed to throw off - it does a little bit unlike gear oil which makes a right old mess.
I always apply the lube after a ride when the chain is warm.
Who needs a signature anyway......
