the product came in a plastic bag, good, cause the cap doesn't seal the top and the lube leaked out. It didn't come with a flexible tube to stick in the top ,so every time I use it , it leaks . The lube does work O K but doesn't last as long as I expected.
I have used this product for the last three years. Does a great job of lubricating IF you can get the cap off the bottle. I'm not sure who designed the child-proof type cap, but without fail, every bottle I have purchased is impossible to open after using about half the contents. Please fix this bad design.
Finish Line Dry Teflon-Plus Lube is an excellent product and the best place to order from is Biketiresdirect.com. The lube is simple to apply and is not messy. I will definitely reorder again from Bikestiresdirect.com.
First time I have used it, applied it to road bike, hybrid, and mtb following post-winter cleaning.
Smooth, no visinke residue, seems to sync very well.
This is the only chain lube I use anymore, and I use it year-round. The caveat is that probably 23 of my 4000 or so miles each year are indoors, on a trainer. So, environmental conditions aren't very challenging, compared to those who ride in drydustywetmuddy conditions outside. The reason I love it for indoors is that it doesn't spatter off and throw black streaks all over my trainer or the mat beneath it, like several other chain lubes have done in the past (even after a wipe down upon every application). My chains have lasted much longer than expected, as confirmed by my handy-dandy chain tool, so I think this product does a fine job of extending chain life.
First off, I probably log 80% of my 3,000-3,500 annual miles indoors on a trainer, so I'm not exposing the drivetrain to really challenging weather (other than the 95% humidity of the pain cave in a longer session). In those admittedly benign conditions, I really like this product. Many others, namely ceramic-based lubes, have produced a black liquid splatter after some use that eventually makes its way off the cassette and chain onto my trainer and the surrounding area, which is no good. This stuff works and keeps the area clean, as far as I can tell.
I live in the Seattle, WA area and ride year around in all weather conditions, Dry Teflon lubricant works as advertised. I clean my chain about every 200 miles, (2 weeks of riding) then dry the chain and apply Dry Teflon lube. Quality product! You won't regret putting Dry Teflon lube on your bike chain.
