I never have settled on a single lube. I use ProGold Prolink on my SS and I use a wax lube on my 10-spd. I thought that I would end up preferring one over the other, but I like both for different reasons. Both seem to provide very good wear protection when used regularly but the wax lube (White Lightning) seems to pick up less road debris.
The ProGold is pretty expensive ($3-$6 for a 4 oz bottle). It looks a lot like the relatively thin 5W-20 synthetic oil I use in my car. Anyone ever try using a thin synthetic motor oil as a chain lube?
