What is recomended for spoke lube with DT Comps and brass nipples? In the past I have used wet chain lube but found this causes the spokes to lose tension in the long term (1 year+). Would like to try boiled linseed oil but seen some say that with brass nipples no lube is needed. Any help?
Linseed oil is brilliant as a spoke freeze, it's easy to work with, a natural product, sets the spoke just enough to not go loose and it's dirt cheap. I would go for the non boiled one if I had the choice
