Can anyone recommend a chain lube/grease that doesn't flick off easily?

Not really found one that i'm happy with and wondered if anyone had any tips?

I'm using Wurth Dry lube - it looks like you haven't lubed the chain at all but provided you use it exactly as it says on the tin then it's brilliant and never flies off...

i use finishline wetlube xc and it just stays on no matter what, highly rated by mags, but it is for use on mtbikes although i don't see it a problem using it on motorbike chains imo.

Motorbike chains have O-rings which can be affected by the wrong lube. I wouldn't use MTB oil personally, just in case...

:wink: THANKS for the tips.

I do lube the chain (perhaps not as often as i should :oops: ), but i end up with it all over the swingarm and back of my jacket! Well messy.
