Yeah yeah, I know, eight zillion chain lube threads.
I ran out of my old lube which wasn't very good anyway. I don't feel like spending a fortune for a tiny bottle of bike specific lube. I am interested in making a batch from common products. I have read lot's of you talk about chain saw oil, motor oil, gear oil, ATF, and mixture with solvents like odorless mineral spirits.
I'm very interested in hearing from all of you that have a home brew recipe that you are very satisfied with. I'd also appreciate any education you can offer regarding the need to thin with solvents, pros and cons. What recipe gets in there and stays in there and lasts a fair amount of miles.
I ride road only and never in the rain.
Not interested in any wax recommendations, liquid only.
Thank you to all who contribute.
