jimmy Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 I remember doing it once as a 17yr old. My maw was a lot less than impressed and I received a "Gypsies Warning" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slice Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Yep I feel bloody old to! Did this when I was 14 on my Fanny Barnett, then the only chain you could get was open end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Variomatic Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Boiling it in wax to clean/lube it? Too young to have ever seen anyone do this, that must have been a huge pain in the ass to do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnerz89 Posted December 19, 2016 Author Share Posted December 19, 2016 I cleaned it first, then boiled it. No hassle really considering I have multiple bikes [emoji16] Sent from my E6553 using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevtheRev Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 A non O-ring chain used with a Scottoiler ,or Kev's patented method of oiling a little and often with clean engine oil , will last longer than any O/X-ring chain lubed with spray crap . And will always stay clean with no horrendous gunk monsters hiding behind the front sprocket cover . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
finnerz89 Posted December 20, 2016 Author Share Posted December 20, 2016 Scottoiler would be my choice if it was an everyday bike Sent from my E6553 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
