Chain guard

[Squashed_Fly]

Can you get chain guards that go around the rear sprocket? I hate the fact that every time I clean my bike, re-lube the chain, it just flies off all over the back wheel. I'm using a good quality chain lube, and leaving it for ages to soak in (overnight usually) yet it still flings off all over the wheel & lower section of the rear seat.

I might just have to get my wheels powdercoated black to hide it!

You could use a wax , you may be using too much lube or you may have to clean your bike more often :P

What are you using? Maybe try something different. Wurth Dry Chain Lube is very good - no fling at all and dirt doesn't stick to it.

More often? lol

It gets cleaned twice a week! The stuff I use is a silkolene chain lube, but I might try a dry wax if that works better.

Does it spray on or get rubbed in (the wax, not the fake tan! ;D)

I used to use (many years ago) the wax type lube, was rubish, flicks everywhere...

I use Wurth dry chain lube, applied after a ride when the chain is warm, works a treat, not lube flicking everywhere anymore and the chain stays clean

Just can't please some people! :
Bring back the days when you had to remove the chain and immerse it in a tub of hot molten lube, then hang it up to drip dry!
There is always the shaft drive option, or drive belt?

I made an extension for my CBR4 after finding the Scottoiler flung oil all over the left-handside of the tyre when you went silly-speeds lol

Will see if I can get a pic later...

Best thing to do is to lube the chain at the end of a ride, then leave it overnight to soak in.
