Lumpy's Dry penetrates deep into the chain links. It dries without globs of residue. And it delivers such a liquid slick ride you'll swear you're pedaling air. Although it seems to attract more grime that Lumpy's Dry, Wet Crack Wax works great in dry conditions. Because it's wax based, grime attraction is a relative thing.
Waxes generally accumulate much less gunk than oil-based lubes.
So it's no surprise that this lube works great on cables, too. Lumpy's Wet Crack Wax may be the best lube offering road riders have ever seen. Granted mountain bikers will benefit from lubing with Lumpy's. But roadies can reap the glassy smoothness of a cycling wax and the slipperiness of Teflon in an all-conditions package. Ready for wherever the road may roll.
