>>1158318do some research buddy. i have been analysing this and experimenting for days
1. scientific testing of chain lube wattage losses confirms parafin wax as being the best
2. olive oil aint cheap - i cook with it and it expires per application , parafin wax is practicly free and lasts repeated dippings in the pot
3. oil still blacks up and messes up my jeans during a commute - wax is perfectly clean
4. wax lasts just as long as oil. it doesnt all flake off
4/4 wax BTFO cooking oil, lett alone tiny overpriced bottles at you LBS
