yeah i do the Mike Jacoubowsky with valvo 50 synth and trans oil 70-140
synth from Epic use
the valvo's stay in grease form on the chain running way below auto
operation temps - stay on the chain not throwing out onto the rim/brake
surface as epic tends doing if one applies too much epic
when the valvo goes to oil from grease form like using a 20 weight in
75 degrees air temp/ 100+ road temp
the valvo then throws off
but becoming oil but runs slicker than a goose ina
the grease forms running in cold temps for their viscosity ranges say
20 weight to 50 degrees, 50W to 85 degrees, then trans oil
all absorb more grit and still function well enough over a 50/100 miler
no chain guard
than epic or i expect pro gold fersure which tend to poop out pretty
early in the run fersure
question becomes - what does one gain from a racing chain lube in a non
racing format?
not much - 1000% more wear and 250' on 20 miles?
