hi, I noticed yesterday some rust marks sitting in the middle of my chain, so it is obviously coming from the sprockets although am not sure which one.


is this something I should be concerned with?


thanks

And yes, you haven't been lubing have you!

parrafin + toothbrush+rag+new lube= good chain.


do it once in awhile and should stop this.

That looks as dry as a witches tit.Bit of tlc will sort it.As long as the links arent stiff should be fine.

I usually lube it once every 3 or so weeks.... although it could do with a clean which I am just working on, were can I get paraffin my old man just said it's hard to find now!!

Most places round here have the alternate stuff, like paraffin just not quite paraffin.. or something.

They've got parafin in petrol stations... I got mine from a Spar actually! But they sell it in my local Asda, and the asda petrol station too.
