I have found that this lubricant works longer than Pedros Hot Wax. I carry the 1 oz. drip bottle on long brevets (400K or longer), especially when there might be rain which decreases the effectiveness, requiring reapplication during a ride. I like using the drip on my chain as it doesn’t get all over my rim. The aerosol is handy for application on other parts of the bike.
This product is endorsed by Levi Leipheimer, one of America's top road racers. He says regarding chains “Keep it clean and lubed and your bike will shift, and look better. I use T-9 bike lube for dry weather and Tri-Flow Superior in wet conditions.” (Outside magazine, Summer 2008 Buyer's Guide, p. 46)
