in my view - you should have at least 2 types of lubes: dry and wet types use the dry type lube on dry trail or road riding conditions and use the wet lube if you're expecting some wet riding condition like river crossings, etc

I use the Endurance Bikeshop lube formula as my wet lube. Really heavy stuff for wet trails.

I almost try all brands of chain Lubricant... The best one for me is the white lightning... wet or dry depends on the weather condition...

I use zefal dry oil but am already running low. What is a good replacement? I would like to try others?
Do I need to have one for dry and another for wet riding conditions? Someone also told me thatr Singer oil is good.
Ride E.C.

Someone also told me thatr Singer oil is good. Ride E.C. i guess for the average dry riding conditions, the widely used chain lube is the White Lightning dry type lube i bought mine before at paulina's cartimar and in my view, if you can have one - it is better to have wet type lube for wet riding conditions use of other oils (wet type), like singer, for dry riding conditions - for me is also good as long as you wipe your chain with dry cloth to remove the excess/unwanted oil that may attract dirt and dust - this is always the advise from the numerous bike mags and articles on bike maintenance ;D
