I generally use Motul. Stopped cleaning the chain a couple of years back. Lube before big trips, or after it rains. Don't really count km any more. If it looks dry, I lube.

Yeah, I discovered last year that they stock it on and off... it will probably disappear from the shelves in a couple months, again. It freaked me out and made me angry, so I went into Lowes, who also had it removed from the shelves at one point... anyway they had 4 cans so I bought it all lol.

Also, if you guys haven't noticed, the Chain Saver will blast water off the chain after washing the bike. I clean mine first, then wash the bike, and then hit it with the Chain Saver... water flies right off the chain, no need to hand dry it.

Used engine oil for lube and wd40/brake cleaner for cleaning

I use DuPont, anything else seemed to fling off. So much so my back tire looked like it was leaking oil lol
