Review by jboehlkeI will never go back to wet lube.by jboehlkeCycling EnthusiastPortland, OR Love Finish Line products and this does not disappoint. Wet Triflo was always messy and attracted dirt. This product lasts longer, and the drive train and casette stays cleaner, much more so and lasts longer. And works well in the rain where other dry lubes do not.

Review by AnonymousWorks great!by AnonymousCasual Cyclist4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.Easy to dispense from the bottle and the lubrication goes on pretty easily. Just follow the instructions and wipe off any excess. Be sure to do this in an area where you don't mind staining or place cardboard on your work area. Otherwise I like this product. And remember, a little goes a long way.

Review by TeamAslanGood for summer, but wateryby TeamAslanCycling EnthusiastColorado Springs2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.After thoroughly cleaning my chain, I applied the Finish Line lube on a clean and dry chain. The first surprise was how very thin and liquidy this lube is, NOT like a typical 'oil' lubricant. You'd best hold the tip of the bottle very close to the chain as you spin the cranks backwards. That said, it seems good so far.... Not sure about the longevity of it, I've only taken a couple of rides with the first application, so I'm not sure how soon again I'll want to re-lube the chain, but so far, the chain seems to ride and shift as smooth as a baby's bottom.

Review by Ska-d4lifeDoes the jobby Ska-d4lifeCycling EnthusiastLake Forest, IL2 of 2 customers found this review helpful.Been a wet lube fan for years, as previous efforts with dry lube (White Lightening) resulted in a real blobby application and a nasty film that seemed to attract road and trail grime onto the drive train, so was always cleaning the stuff off and starting over. This however is a different experience altogether. Applies easily, cleanly, and the excess is easily wiped away. After a couple of months of summer use, the drive train seems to be less dirty than either my old wet lube, or the previous attempts to lube dry. I remain skeptical that this is an all-weather lube, but will see soon enough, and if it is, I'll even convert my off-road bikes!

Review by MoBikerGood stuffby MoBikerCycling EnthusiastSpringfield Mo4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.I like a clean well lubed chain on my ultegra equipped bike since it improves the shifting performance. This lube performs well and can last for multiple 40 to 50 mile rides. I tried other lubes when my local bike shops quit carrying it but came back to Finish Line by buying on-line since the others didn't work as well. Thumbs up!

Review by MJPDXEasy to cleanby MJPDXCycling EnthusiastPortland OR4 of 4 customers found this review helpful.I use the teflon lube because it makes cleaning easier, is less messy, and picks up less road dirt. I clean the chain frequently. Don't try to toss it in your bike carrier for airline travel - mine was confiscated by TSA!

Review by RonDry lube without flaking like wax.by RonCompetitive RacerAnn Arbor1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.I've been using an old crockpot and wax for my chains but my velodrome (Lexus Velodrome in Detroit) noticed some slick waxy patches on the track that they suspected might have been the result of wax flaking off of waxed chains. It's easy wipe down the outside of the chain while the wax is still hot, but it can really be difficult to get all the excess wax out from the inside the links. The Finish Line Dry lube seems to do the trick to lube the chain without slinging flakes or dripping lube on the track. I still like my crockpot full of wax for my road and grave bikes.

Review by BenA good lube for road bikesby BenNew City, NY1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.I have been using Finish Line dry lube on my road bike chain for about two years. It attracts less dirt than the wet lube I had been using (Finish Line ceramic). The only "con" is that you have to apply it more frequently, every 100 miles, and it is not as good (I am told) in wet conditions. You have to apply it more liberally than a wet lube, because the liquid is not the lubricant, it's a volatile solvent that has the lubricant suspended in it, which evaporates out after depositing it on and in the chain.

Review by Kevin KnappFinish Line Dry - it works wellby Kevin KnappCycling EnthusiastEscondido, CA1 of 1 customers found this review helpful.I've used Finish Line Dry chain lube for many years on all my bikes (road, tandem, ebike). I like that is somewhat dries out so that is collects less road grime than wet lube products. I also use it on many things (creaky door hinges, anything that has light friction that needs lube.
