Hi

Thanks for replies to my first post they were helpful (sorry about the
duplicate post, that was a mistake). From the replies it seems like
changing the chain at approx 2k miles (6 months in my case) would probably
give a longer life out of the whole system.

Any advice on the best lube to use, also what is the best method of
'cleaning' the chain. I have been removing it, degreasing and then soaking
it in a bath of thin oil.

thanks

Gary
