And yes, that year-old chain is stretched to hell and actively destroying my brand new cassette. Don’t shame me for it - look how shiny it is!

    Seems more trouble than it’s worth honestly. I’m sure it works for some use cases but I doubt the chain of my year-around mud basher is the ideal one for that.

      Honestly I feel the opposite, I dip my chain yearly in the same parafin/Teflon mix I made many years ago using ozcycles recommendation and it saves so much time in cleaning grime off my chain. Though I don’t go through mud much, from what other people say it seems it would help even more in that scenario.
