Best front range chain lube?

I switched from white lighting to ProLink, and have been quite happy.

T9

I've used Boeshield T9 on my chain for about 4 years now and haven't found a reason to switch. If I'm remembering the packaging right, it's a wax/teflon formula and seems to resist water really well. You should be able to find it in some of the FR bike shops.

I've used Prolink recently. Was ok. I still prefer Finish Line Red.

I use white lightning original formula, which works nice, but it doesn't stay on the chain long if it gets wet. Anything better out there?

This is what I use: http://www.slickwillylube.com/

The Slush Armor is the best stuff I've ever used for the MTB. Disclaimer: The owner, Bill Hurley, is a friend of mine.

Pedros for me

I used to use Boeshield and swear by it. Now I prefer Pedros ice wax. Seems to outlast Boeshield.

White Lightning Epic (was Race Day) is what I've been using. I've been happy with it. I never did care for regular WL dissappearing after 1/2 a ride. Finish Line Red is good, too.

I'm pretty picky about having a clean chain so I don't mind lubing frequently. I clean the chain and lube the night before riding. That gives the lube plenty of time to set up. When I do that, I've got lube to last for about 5-7 hours of chain spinning time.

I use Finish Line Green in the winter. Same process, only I wipe off the excess before letting it set up. The chain needs a more thourough cleaning with the Green, though.

Thanks for all the suggestions guys. I'm not real big on cleaning my chain as the WL kept it pretty clean - I'd just scrub it with a park brush once every two weeks.

Maybe I should go for the WL EPIC, or are most lubes self-cleaning now days?

i've used WL and Boeshield and the usual oil based gunk but so far my fave is rock-n-roll lube http://www.rocklube.com/ I like the extreme version cause, well you know...

rock'n'roll

Use Rock'n'Roll gold for shorter rides, and extreme for longer rides. This lube is similar but far superior to the white lightning lubes. It is also sold re-badged as ritchey chain lube. Rock'n'Roll works best if it is applied the night before and allowed to set up. It runs super clean and with very low friction. I believe the Ritchey badged R'n'R is the extreme (blue color) formula.
