GT85 Lubricant

[pes]

LBS recommend the above.
It contains PTFE and they say that it can be used all over bike including chain.
Seems a bargain at £3.50 for 400ml spray can.
I would appreciate your views please.

I would prefer a heavier oil for a chain tbh.

An LBS that recommends GT85 as a chain lube, especially in winter, has an eye on repeat sales of new chains (plus sprockets, etc).

They probably also sell Muc Off as the mark up on replacement rear hubs is pretty good as well.

It's great for derailleur pivots etc - IT'S NOT A CHAIN LUBE.

Use something like Finish Line Pro Road on your chain.

Mine sells it for £3 ... I accidently bought it before Christmas... then remembered the can I wanted was green so had to pay an extra pound.

Cheers guys.

your better off with finish lube and some light oil ,finish for the chain and light oil will do most everything else . You can use it for corroded parts but then drizzle light oil after,but its your choice
