Looking for advice: what’s the best way to keep my drivetrain running smoothly long-term?@Campbell Same here — that’s why I asked. I’m trying to figure out what’s actually a good balance between over-cleaning and under-maintaining. Interested to hear what others do regularly.

Looking for advice: what’s the best way to keep my drivetrain running smoothly long-term?Also curious what lube types people use — wet lube vs dry lube vs ceramic. Anyone notice a difference in drivetrain wear?

Looking for advice: what’s the best way to keep my drivetrain running smoothly long-term?@trafficones Nice — do you only wipe the chain before re-lubing, or do you do any deeper cleaning in muddy conditions? Trying to build a consistent routine.

Looking for advice: what’s the best way to keep my drivetrain running smoothly long-term?Hey team, I’ve been putting more time into maintaining my bike properly and I want to make sure I’m looking after my drivetrain the right way.
I’m currently using a chain scrubber tool, degreaser, and re-lubing after each clean, but I’m not sure what the ideal cleaning frequency or technique is for trail riding in mixed conditions.A few questions I’d appreciate advice on:
• How often do you do a full chain clean vs a quick wipe + re-lube?
• What degreasers or lubes have worked best for you long-term?
• Any tips for reducing drivetrain wear on a hardtail?
• How clean is “clean enough” before re-lubing?Trying to get consistent results and avoid premature chain/cassette wear. Any guidance from more experienced riders is appreciated.

WD-40 works well with my stumpjumper
Do you mean WD-40 Bike lube or the regular WD-40 spray? I’ve heard mixed opinions, so curious what’s working for you

Looking for advice: what’s the best way to keep my drivetrain running smoothly long-term?Also curious — how often do you all do a full degrease vs just wiping + re-lubing? I ride in mixed conditions so it’s hard to tell what’s overkill.

Looks this smooth?Yeah. 9.5/10
