  • First ride on home waxed chain this morning. Sooooo quiet! Love it.

    Dunno how long this will last but first impressions are very good.

  • Now I really need to go and find some paraffin. I have a crockpot my mother gave me for my birthday which I haven't used since we have an inducation hob but I can't quite bring myself to sacrificing it to the waxing gods, don't think I would ever eat from it again. I'm also considering getting a bag of MoS2 from eBay, but the smallest quantity I can find is enough for 110kg of wax, not sure if I'm ready to start dealing all sorts of powders...

    You could always just clean it if you wanted to cook with it. Or, if it's like mine, the pot bit is separate from the heating bit so just buy another pot for cooking with.

    I've not bothered with any mix-ins yet. This is just a commuter chain. If I like the results my plan is to get some MSW for the race bikes but I may mix up my own if I can find decent ingredients. I really need to be saving my money for a Spanish villa that will have enough space to do all this shit properly.
