Most of the time, after a ride, with the chain left on the bike, I hold a rag on the chain and spin the cranks a couple revolutions to wipe it down. My chains last a lot of miles. IMO, the plates do not need the lube, the rollers do.
why because that is how is is designed and that is the instruction on the bottle. it is not oil. It is more solvent/teflon mix
why comment if you don't use or about a product?
