Wet oil attracts dirt like a magnet. A dry chain does not attract dirt, and therefore stays cleaner longer. You have good luck with your system becasue you clean the chain EVERY time. I generally clean the chain once a month, and I do about 200 miles a week. I used to hot wax, completely dry, and the chain would stay very clean. Since upgrading to 10 speed, I have switched to Rock N Roll lube with much success. Not as dry as hot wax, but not wet either. Post Extras
