🔗 Motul Chain Paste 102984 Review

Only bought this to get caught in a downpour on an upcoming trip. We did. The rain washed out the chain lube for me and 4 other bikes and that one tube was enough to lube all of our bikes by a wide margin and you could still see great coverage even after the 700 mile ride home. Aerosol Lube definitely wouldn't have lasted that long so I'm very impressed!

Just bought my third tube of this stuff. It's just fantastic. I will never buy sprays again. The downside is that it takes a "long time" to apply properly. But what bike owner doesn't mind having a beer and working on their bike? The other, very minor in my opinion, is that some of it comes off after relubrication and wipes the rim. Then he never flies again. Another great thing about this material is that it stays on the chain forever. It's hard to find in bike shops, so stock up here. If you…

I have ridden every day my whole life and I am an LD rider. With the exception of a few driveshafts, most of my bikes had chains.

Unfortunately, most lubes splatter all over the bike and rider, attracting and trapping harmful grit in the

A kind of chain lube of the future. Lasts longer than most sprays and is thicker. It spreads along the chain so you really only need to apply to a small section of chain.

If you see clumps of white paste, you're doing it wrong. Also, you only need to create about 10 links and let them spread. I only cover the back of the links around the…

This seemed like an interesting approach to chain lubrication, so I decided to give it a try. I figured it would be less messy, more accurate, and less wasteful than spraying lube. After a few chain maintenance intervals, however, I will fall back on "traditional" chain lubricating spray. Chain and pendulum for wiping. I ended up unscrewing the tip of the applicator from the tube and using it like a small brush, which turned out to be more cumbersome and slower than just spraying lube. Second…
