kwsmithphoto Date Reviewed: March 18, 2013 Strengths: Shifts like a wet lube but doesn't pick up dirt or wash off in water crossings. Definitely decreases drivetrain wear, which I have learned after a decade of using this stuff. Weaknesses: It's also a solvent so protect your tires, frame, wheels, etc. from drips. Bottom Line:

a All Mountain Rider Date Reviewed: July 10, 2012 Strengths: It is quiet, it allows crisp shifting, it’s long-lasting, and it is ready to go after application – you can apply and ride. Weaknesses: The only bad thing about this lube is the application. The applicator tip on the bottle is just about worthless. The lube drips out the bottom of the tip (closest to the bottle), as much as it drips out the end of the tip (where it’s supposed to come out). This definitely results in some waste.

from Brisbane, QLD, Australia Date Reviewed: February 2, 2012 Strengths: Does not attract dirt/dust, long lasting, quiet, easy to dispense, bottle does not clog like wax lubes, Weaknesses: Its only weakness is related to the incompatability (contains mineral spirits) with the plastics in my new E13 chain guide/bash ring. Had I known this was an issue I would have found a different bash guard / chain guide. This is a big disappointment as I have tried all of the E13 recomended lubricants with dismal results. I supose they would be good lubes if you were a fully sponsored rider and had someone else paying for and maintaining your bike and parts. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 2 Years Purchased At: LBS Similar Products Used: Triflow, Pedros, White Lightning, and many others Bike Setup: GT Sanction 1.0, full Saint, Maxis Ardent 2.4 tyres, Reverb dropper post, my goto bike for pretty much all types of riding.

from Dunwoody GA Date Reviewed: August 27, 2011 Strengths: The oil does not seem to pick up as much grime and dirt as other oils I have used. The result is I am keeping my components longer and thus saving me big bucks. I really like that the flow out of the bottle is just right for applying the oil. Weaknesses: None that I know of.

from atlanta, GA Date Reviewed: August 25, 2011 Strengths: Clean running chain lube. Last for MTB use. It works best when u apply it the night before so the metal treatment can really do it's work, it works good as a lube just applied right before the ride, but I prefer to apply it hours out, then again right before, then wipe off excess.

from East Coaster Date Reviewed: July 12, 2011 Strengths: This and cleans the chain well. Used the product for many years with great success Weaknesses: Started using a chain guide. The solvents in the ProGold ProLink impacted the polycarbonate and lead to a failure. I am quite sure this was the root cause due to the lack of abbrasions or other physical marks on the chainguide. The integrated pully fell off during a ride, and the upper guide was showing signs of chemica attack. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Favorite Trail: The one nearest Duration Product Used: More than 3 years Price Paid: $6.00 Purchased At: Various Places Similar Products Used: Just started using Dumondtec with great success. Might try others as well. Bike Setup: All Over the Mountain and Valleys
