| Rock and Roll Gold is the premium chain lube from | | | | bike. In dry summer conditions, I've gotten over 500 |
| Rock and Roll Lubrication. This company has a | | | | kms from an applications of Rock and Roll Gold, |
| steamlined product line that covers most of your bike | | | | before the chain is dry. Over that time is didn't get the |
| maintenance need. In addition to the lubes they also | | | | crud build up that occurs with many lubes. You get less |

| Like many lubes, it comes in a little drip bottle to make | | | | rides that have a lot of rain and things are still |
| for easy application. | | | | functioning smoothly at the end. |
| Keeping your chain and drivetrain clean and lubricated | | | | Does it reduce drive train wear? |
| is one of the easiest ways to keep your bike | | | | This is associated with how clean it is but the actual |
| functioning properly. With so many lubes on the market | | | | lubricant can reduce metal on metal friction as well. |
| all saying they are the best it's hard to figure out what | | | | Compared to popular wax lubes, I've found that my |
| to use. In my 17 years of working in the bike business, | | | | chains last up to twice as long when I lube with Rock |
| I've tested just about every lube on the market. Rock | | | | and Roll Gold weekly. With chain oils or wax I find that I |
| and Roll Gold is my favorite I've used so far. I expect | | | | get between 2500 and 3000 kms on a quality chain. |
| some one will come out with something better some | | | | With Rock and Roll Gold I often get over 5000 kms |
| day but for the last few years this is the only stuff I | | | | before is has worn to the point of replacement. As |
| use on my bikes unless I'm testing a new lube. | | | | most lubes cost about the same, this stuff saves you |
| When testing a lube I look for a few things. | | | | money over other lubes as parts will last longer. |
| How clean it is? | | | | Does it improve shifting and leave the drive train |
| Does it clean the chain and does it stay clean. A | | | | running quietly? |
| crudded up chain wears quicker and shifts poorly. | | | | What lube you use can make a big difference in how |
| Rock and Roll Gold is the cleanest lube I've ever used. | | | | well your drive train functions. Rock and Roll Gold is |
| When you first put it on, it lifts dirt that you can wipe | | | | the quietest lube I've ever used. We use it in the repair |
| off with a clean, dry rag. It's stays clean, even in wet | | | | shop and it's one of the quickest ways to improve the |
| conditions. After each ride, wipe down your chain and | | | | function of an older drive train. I really notice in on |
| what little dirt it picked up will come right off. Put an | | | | mountain bikes where the chain is subjected to harder |
| application on a dirty chain and it's amazing how it just | | | | shifts and sharper angles. |
| lifts the grimy crud from the surface of the metal. | | | | Overall this is the best chain lube on the market. I've |
| Pedal it backwards a few times. Then wipe off the | | | | not found many products that make this big of a |
| chain with a rag and the chain looks like new. | | | | difference but Rock and Roll Gold is a winner. The |
| How long does it last between applications? | | | | only negative is that is isn't bio-degradable so if that is |
| I've used lubes that won't even make it through one | | | | your main priority, then stick to the vegetable oil based |
| ride before my chain is making that dry, raspy sound | | | | lubes. They don't work as well but they are more |
| that says "lube me". I don't want to have to lube my | | | | environmentally friendly. |
| chain before every ride, particularly on my commuting | | | | |
