long rant and question snipped
Am I the only one who'd rather spend $25 on a new chain once every
couple years, and a new cassette every other chain, than spend an
hour cleaning my chain for every 2 hours I spend riding?
I clean my chain when I think it's full of crud, or when I'm
cleaning the whole bike. Other than that, I load it up with
chain lube every few rides; it never squeaks, and my drivetrain
lasts as long as anybody else's.
At least, this has been the case with my badly abused mountain
bike. I haven't had road bikes long enough to know.
I've got better things to do than clean my chain every day. Things
such as offending people on newsfroups...
Thanks a lot,
Dani
