What is the best chain lube for off road and high speed that won't fling off and attract to much grit? :confused:

I use Mamima chain wax. It doesn't fling off, but make sure you have the chain clean before you put it on.

Tri Flow, it has Teflon, and teflon is a lot better than Silicone found in many chain lubes. I am not sure about Maxima Chan wax, never used it, but maxima is a trusted name!

I have been using the chain wax and have had good results.

Used to work for a place that sold tri-flow and have some old samples (about a case) sitting around here. How well has it stayed on the chain for you, I think I remember it washing off of other stuff I tried it on(but was real slippery) and its been a while and I am not sure.

what is this Sidewinder stuff made out of??? Of course they say its the best,, but it says on the can that it lubricates better than wax and does not fling off and doesnt have a tacky property to attract dirt!! If that is true then I would think this stuff is the best!! i dont know though because i havent got to try it yet!!

yeah when i got my chain and sprocket set they didnt even say anyting about it,,,,,,,,but the directions say that it is the only "approved" lubricant for the sidewinder chain, and they are the only ones to carry it. The chain wax works good for me......
