The criminal trial for the murder of cyclist Moriah Wilson that has gripped the nation and cycling world alike gets underway in Austin, Texas, today. With the added benefit of being readily biodegradable Fenwicks All Conditions Bike Chain Lube its great to have in your tool box. Could you please make either of the unscrewing threads opposed to each other, as I keep unscrewing the complete top and then emptying the bottle over my wheel. Despite the seemingly endless differences, chain lube can be broken down into just two simple categories: wet and dry. Developed over many years using innovative raw materials, Fenwick’s have formulated a unique chain lube.

I tested it in all weathers, mostly riding my road bike but with the odd mucky spin on my gravel bike. The downside to Teflon is that it's harmful to the environment, even though its used here in very small doses. As Nash also points out: “Value is an issue — in a bottle of wet lube, 100 percent of the formula will lubricate. If you need to clean your bike or your chain after a ride, you should end up by drying the chain and reapplying lube, to prevent your chain from rusting.In recent wet conditions we found that we only needed to reapply it sparingly every 7 to 10 days when riding daily for best results. Muc-Off's wet lube formula contains no harmful acids, CFCs or solvents, as well as being biodegradable. We wanted something that would perform in mixed weather conditions yet be easy to clean off when needed. You could argue that a lube that lasts for many miles on a single application has better green credentials than one that's easily washed away in the rain. After applying the lubes the reviewer soaked the chain with water from a garden hose, leaving it for 30 minutes before riding.

We also liked that, unlike some wet lubes, Green Oil didn't attract too much dirt and grime that can really wear the drivechain. Mr Wells I was expecting stealthier but it is a nice light lube which works well in the dry and with regular cleaning and reapplying. The downside is that the sticky nature of wet oil can attract dirt that, if left to build up, can work as a grinding paste to rapidly wear out components.As well as its well-known multipurpose spray, WD40 does make a specialist bicycle chain lube, which is formulated for the job. Whichever lube you prefer to use, for the best results Trimnell suggests that you leave the lube on the chain overnight before riding for maximum benefit. It’s designed not to pick up dust in dry conditions or dirt in wet conditions making it a great for everyday use.
