I didn't see any reviews of the product, but supposedly you can wash it off and re apply it again, makes me think it wouldn't be too effective in the rain.

Non omnino gravis
My drivetrain smells fantastic since I dropped that puck of Mr. Zogs Cold Water into the Lil' Dipper. Kind of a Pina Colada sort of scent.

Use rubber gloves when you lube your chain and don't ask your city/county for a full report on your drinking water. That will give you bigger worries than the chain lube.

If the OP cared about his fellow bikers he would name the product so we wouldn't end up with cancer.

Wait. You're not going to name it so if we are using it, you're going to let us all die?
What's the purpose of this warning?
It's like: "Hey all.. just want to warn you that I heard if you drink a certain popular carbonated drink there was a huge batch that had arsenic in it but I'm not going to tell you the company because I care about them trying to stop me more than I care about you dying."

Has anyone tried arsenic or cyanide as chain lube? It might be superior to whats on the market. A chain lube to die for.

I don't want to name the product unless I get some corroborating evidence. Companies are known to go after people who diss them online. Also it would be unfair to the company if it is not true.
I think I am leaning to the side of there being nothing to it. So I won't say anything more.
If anybody has anything to add about more eco friendly and healthy chain lubes I would be happy to hear it.
