Review on Park Tool CL-1 Chain Lube Bottle (4 oz) - Synthetic Blend for Enhanced Performance by Alfonso Alexander

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Great lube but new cap leaks

Lube works great but I don't like the packaging. It came with a longer applicator tip - not the same as the plain cap pictured. The tip is part of the cap and unscrews, allowing you to apply the product through a small hole in the end. This part works fine. The whole cap didn't fit the bottle snugly and when I had it in my toolbox while riding it leaked and lost about 10% of the oil. I examined the cap and there wasn't a single spot where it would be airtight when the bottle was on its side. I later dropped the bottle from about 3 feet, the cap came off and I lost about 60% of the original oil. I used up a few drops and only have about 30% of the bottle left! The old cap (as shown at the time of writing this review) was fine - the new one is leaking. And all after the original envelope arrived with a torn page and no lube! They delivered another one quickly with no problems.

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • boring packaging
