This stuff works great. It's fluid enough to get into the chain's nooks and crannies.
Review by Jane
I ride and commute all year in all conditions. I clean the chain often, but not as often as I could. This lube works for me.
Review by Hoodcyclist
Good overall chain lubricant a little gummy and heavy in dusty conditions compared to other lighter lubes, but great for most conditions.

Review by Bruce
I've been using ProGold ProLink Chain Lubricant for about 5 years. It is exceptional without question. When my chain is happy, I am happy. I'm a happy rider/racer. I apply this to my chain every 10-14 days and it has always worked well.

Been very happy since discovering this lube. Works well, clean, easy to apply. No real issues in wet weather ridin using this product.

ProLink ProGold is probably my favorite lube. ProLink's formulation for this lube seems to facilitate the cleaning of your chain. For super wet conditions you may want to go with something else, but this lube is hard to beat.

This has been my go to chain lube. It is light and works well in wet and dry conditions.
Review by Rob
I've tried a lot of others and none of them seem to last as long or keep the chain as clean as GoldPro ProLink. And it doesn't collect dirt and grime the way some other products do. Great stuff & a good value.

ProLink Gold is the finest chain lube I have used for dry riding conditions. My chain runs more quiet and smoothly with great shifting and extended chain life compared with just about every other lube I have tried ( which is most of the popular brands and formulas on the market). I find it to be less effective in wet conditions because it is an extremely thin lube that can wash off quickly in wet riding conditions. However, this formula really performs well in dry conditions as it easily gets deep into the pins and rollers where the lube is most important. The metal friction readucers in the formula help the chain to run silky smooth and quiet while extending chain life about 20-25%. I generally get about 4500-5000 miles out of my KMC 10XLS Gold chain with ProLink compared with about 3500 with most other lubes. Your total mileage may vary due to riding condtions and terrain but I would expect a similar percentage improvement in chain life.) I live and ride in pan flat So. Fla. and cruise at 90-100 rpms so I am easier on chains than average.)
I generally lube the chain every 100-200 miles and with ProLink, I find the chain remains so clean that it is not necessary to degrease and clean it more than every 500-600 miles. It comes in drip bottle and is easy to dispense a drop at a time so In just a few minutes I place a drop on each pin, let is sit for a few minutes and then pedal the cranks while I wipe off any excess on the outside of the chain (which is useless and only attracts dirt anyway).
I have used ProLink for over 50,000 miles of riding and wouldn't think of putting anything else on my chain. If I get caught in the rain I make sure I clean and relube as soon as I get home and even the wet riding doesn't create a problem.

This lube is light and promotes easy, quiet shifting. However, on a couple of occasions when I got caught in rain on century rides, the lube ended up washing off and drying out leaving me to hear each pedal stroke. If you think you might run into rain on a log ride, throw some White Lightning on as a back-up before you head out.

I�ve been using ProLink for probably 15 years. I�ve tried other wet lubes but keep coming back to ProLink. I apply it every 200-250 miles or after I ride in the rain or salty conditions. It results in very smooth shifting and a quiet drive train. I highly recommend this lube.
Review by TRex
I use this lube on all my bikes, mountain and road. Have for many years. For dry dusty conditions as in Colorado I think this is the perfect lube. Provides very good lasting lubrication. I will occasionally refresh the chain between washes and find that it loosens up dirt very nicely. Appreciate the biodegradable friendliness also.
For the price it's unbeatable. I pray it never goes off the market!

I've been using prolink for a long time. In the past I've done a lot of ultra marathons but in recent years nothing over 125 miles. The prolink goes on easy and keeps the chain and drive train very clean. Of course I always wipe chain with a cloth before and after applying. Simply put it does not attract grime like many other lubes.
I don't quite trust it for the longer rides, opting then for a wax based lube or taking the prolink with me on the ride. But again, for up to 125 miles, no problem.
For the above reasons it is not the best pivot point lube but if you take good frequent care to maintain your ride and apply it often, say once every five to ten rides, it will serve you well there too.

Great for the road - need something a little heavier and stickier for my mountain bike!
Review by SJ_Cyclist
I've tried several different brand in the last 9 years and this stuff seem to makes my drivetrain (2018 Shimano 105) run quieter and smoother than w/ the other oils.
This is how I use it. After a ride ( usually 40 + miles, all road, and moderate hill climbing ), I wipe the chain down and put a drop on each bushing, spin it slowly for 30 seconds, wipe then I'm done. Makes my bike shift like a brand new Di2. :-) Once you get the hang of it, hardly takes anytime. I ditched the messy, medieval chain cleaner device once I started the routine w/ P Gold.

I ride in dry and warm conditions with some dust and wind in Southern Arizona. This lube is perfect for these conditions and works much better than any other product I have tried.

I have used this chain lube for years on all my bikes -- mountain, road, cyclocross. It's not sticky and is good for 100+ miles, depending on conditions. I've tried others, but always come back to this one.
