Strengths:    Goes on easy, easy to clean, dosen't gunk up, great in messy conditions

Weaknesses:    not very viscous you might end up using more than you need to, transferring to an eyedropper bottle will help

Bottom Line:   
I live in Upstate New York and in the winter we tend to get very messy road conditions, I have been using this lube as my primary chain lube for winter as well as sloppy condition Cyclo-Cross and it works great, it really helps to keep water off and out of the chain so even if you don't get around to wiping down the chain immediately after every ride in sloppy conditions you don't have to worry about rust setting in right away, I find it works best when you apply one drop per link, work it in and wipe off any excess, it really hangs in there well even if you wipe the chain down after every ride, I like to reapply weekly during foul weather and immediately after cleaning up from an especially messy cross race, this stuff works great in combination with the Standard ProGold Lube for normal conditions, using one or the other depending on conditions you can't go wrong.

Strengths:    Doesn't attract crap. Stay's clean. Lubes well. Wet or dry. I use it on chain and moving parts on my derailleurs.

Weaknesses:    Some might think it's too thin, but correct application makes a solid barrier to outside contamination.

Bottom Line:   
I've had this on my bike for the past couple of years. No gunking up and stays on for miles. I'm more than satisfied with it's overall performance and would be hard pressed to use anything else.
It's gone through stage races and other marathon distances and always seems to keep things quite and happy. A lubed chain is a happy chain.

Strengths:    This lube is the lubiest of lubes. All other inferior lubes shiver in shame and fear at the superior strength that this lube has on the drive train. Whether muddy, wet, or dry weather conditions don't matter to pro gold xtreme chain lube. THis lube just gets things done.

Weaknesses:    Not enough people know about it.

Bottom Line:   
I use this lube for all my bikes and during any conditions. I used to use dry grease but the dirt accumulated too quickly. THis lube actually cleans my chain for me.

Strengths:    Everything...I love gooooooollllllddddddd

Weaknesses:    Can't put in my coffee....

Bottom Line:   
Is cutting the grass on a segway EXTREMELY lazy...? Well this lube applys the same thought to lube and your chain. That's right, maintenance free. You can apply this lube, wipe down excess, and see ya - rip throught gears day after day after day...and the kicker??? = through any conditions...dust, dirt, mud, rain, snow.

Strengths:    Like Chuck Norris applied to your chain

Weaknesses:    You saying Chuck is weak?

Bottom Line:   
Apply to clean chain the night before, next day wipe down and rock out. Mud? Karate chop. Dust? Round house. Sand? Throat punch. Get you some.

Strengths:    This stuff is the bomb in nasty conditions. I race cross & mtn bikes in the midwest and it gets nasty here in November and December. Never leave home without the XTREME lube from Pro Gold!

Weaknesses:    when used properly(applied the night before) there are no weaknesses

Bottom Line:   
If you haven't tried it yet...get to your local bike shop and order some up
