I've been using Bel-Ray Chain Wax for years with great results.....except even putting it on a warm chain and then wiping it down....it still builds up gunk and crap to some extent.....
So I decided w/ the new bike to use WD-40 from now on and see how long it lasts and how it works, etc...kind of an experiment......now, I only have 6k on my bike and chain, but in two years of riding the chain looks like new, spins freely w/ no tight spots I can find, is nice and shiny (both sides too, you can see thru the back rim to the back of the sprocket and chain and they gleam in there!).
I have yet to notice any ill effects from the WD....so I'm going to be sticking w/ it for a while.
