Fresh Goods Sunday - Finish Line Wet Lube 120ml bottle

 
 

I have been using Finish Line products for many years now, from memory probably around 25 years. I mainly use there chain lubes and Fenwick's products for degreasing. The wet lube (Green bottle) is my favourite by a long way and has never changed over the years. Saying that there is a new safety cap mechanism on the bottle which is rubbish, bring back the old screw top cap! as for the oil well it is easy to apply to the chain, I just squeeze a light drizzle along the top of the chain whilst turning the crank backwards then a light coat on the bottom of the chain. If the ground / weather conditions are not too wet / muddy you normally get a good few rides before having to re lube. After a couple of applications I degrease the chain and re lube. It works brilliant in normal UK weather conditions. The product is excellent value for money and a 120ml bottle lasts a long time. In really dry / dusty conditions I don't use the wet lube and apply the dry lube instead (red bottle). This is a lot thinner and does not last as long but better in dusty riding conditions.
RRP £8 and I paid £3.35 inc p&p from PBK

Manufacturers blurb -
WET Lube is typically recommended for extreme conditions. Formulated with high viscosity synthetic oils, water repelling polymers, and advanced anti-wear additives. WET Lube is Finish Line's strongest, longest lasting and most water resistant lubricant. WET Lube goes on wet, and stays wet, to provide maximum drivetrain smoothness, extremely quiet rides, and ultimate rust protection in the harshest of environments.
If you use WET Lube for riding off-road or in dry climates, be sure to wipe the excess from parts to minimize the attraction of dirt and grime. Since 1994, when WET Lube was first introduced, it has become the preferred lubricant for many professional on and off-road teams around the world.
Use WET Lube when you ride hard and long. Proven performance for 100-plus mile rides, muddy off-road conditions, long rainy commutes, and foggy salt-air coastal climates. A heavier, wet-style lubricant that requires a little more attention to drivetrain cleanliness, but delivers the ultimate in lubricity and protection.
