    Hi all, has anyone bought Acf50 from eBay? Had a look and I can get a 950ml bottle of it and a spray applicator for £32.99 does that sound about right? Also what are your personal preferences towards chain oil which make do you prefer?

    I was using putoline chain wax previously but found the chain too dry. I now use the new WD40 chain oil which works far better.

    I'm using Wurth dry chain lube on the tiger. Seems to work well and no mess but you can't tell it's on when dry.
    Have bought 3 cans of the WD40 chain oil from Aldi so will be trying that soon.

    The chain looks wetter with the WD40 and I do get some fling as I tend to use it frequently as I head out rather than adding it when I get home. My bike shop picked up how dry my chain seemed with just the wax and actually added some lube as it was sounding dry when they were working on it. The WD40 lube goes on easily and does dry to a very tacky finish but the chain rollers look wet and well lubed now.
