re: Two questions: (1) Can I use WD-40 on a bicycle chain?

WD or 3-in-1 Machine oil is all you need. No fancy shite needed. Those paradfin based oils are crap. Trap dirt and sand. Light coat every now and then and wipe off excess. I put in about three thousand miles a year and in nine years I've been through three chains.

If one of the first 39 formulas worked... You'd know it by another name.... Just a little trivia

Sure why not. It works for most things. I use it on my bad knees and a bum shoulder. Just have to be careful not to over do it. If you do you can start tasting it after a week or so.

I asked the overlords of our existence if I could answer this. They said to hold my response until December 27, 2135. Only then will man achieve the ability to access enough of their brain to even be able to understand this.

No, it is a lubricant, just a very thin one. I've done my fair share of research and use a bicycle chain specific oil. I've seen plenty of places say wd-40's the devil to use. But I've seen a few say if you clean your bike regularly and apply wd-40 after every cleaning, it's not terrible. So if you make a long ride once a week and clean your chain and gears each week, it's a comparable lube. Just don't expect it to last 6 months.

1. Yes. How did you not learn this at 10 years old like everyone else?
2. The physical and chemical properties of the universe that existed before ours. Singularity sucked it all up.....then boom. Ours was born.
