What no Tri Flon represented???

Side bar story- When TriFlon first came to the bike industry (about 1978) the brand sent out samples and a Guns and Ammo mag reprint. We all tried the new stuff and were fairly impressed given that the common chain lube was SA oil or auto stuff. But it was the article reprint that convinced us. The claims of increased automatic firing rate and lessened carbon build up with the M16s the mag used as their test "vehicle" spoke to us. If TriFlon was good enough for a machine gun it was fine for a bike chain. It was shortly later that TriFlon had to change it's name to something that sounded less like "Teflon". Yes, we had cease and desist letters too back then Andy
