Pro Gold Products ProGold ProLink Chain Lube, 4oz

Fantastic bicycle chain lube. I've been a professional bike mechanic for many years and this chain lube is my favorite. It goes on light, wipes away easy, leaves behind no residue, and lasts for many miles before needing reapplication. It makes for a clean and quiet chain which makes for a longer-lasting drive train and a blissful pedaling experience. I wish we used it in the shop I work at because it is my go-to chain lube for personal use. Simply backpedal w/ the tip of the applicator against the chain until a drop has been distributed to each link of chain, pedal through the gears a couple of times, wipe off the excess, and ride, voila! It only takes a minute and the results are excellent. A small bottle lasts a very long time even w/ multiple bikes in the stable. Highly recommended.

Keeps My Mountain Bike Drivetrain Running Smooth in the Midwest! I’ve been using ProGold ProLink on my mountain bike chain (and associated drivetrain components), and it’s quickly become my go-to lube since my local bike shop uses this. I ride in mixed conditions—dusty trails, occasional mud, and sometimes wet crossings—and this stuff holds up great. Application is easy: just a light coat on the chain, wipe off the excess, and it penetrates deep into the links without leaving a sticky mess. What I really like is that it doesn’t attract a ton of dirt the way some thicker lubes do. My drivetrain stays noticeably cleaner, shifting is smooth, and the chain noise is basically gone. The 4oz bottle may look small, but a little goes a long way, and it’s easy to toss in my gear bag if I need it. Between protecting against rust, cutting down on wear, and keeping my chain quiet, this lube has saved me money on drivetrain parts and made rides a lot more enjoyable. If you’re looking for a reliable chain lube for mountain biking, this is a solid choice.

This our go to bike lubrication for all of our bikes whether it’s for kids, mountain, road, or cross trek bikes.

Overall, ProLink Chain Lube lives up to its reputation as a reliable and high-quality product for those who prioritize optimal chain performance and durability.

I live in the desert and needed something that dust doesn’t stick to. Works well , smells strong and you need to avoid getting it on your hands

Being raised on TriFlow, I decided to try something else. I was researching this stuff and was pleasantly surprised to see the bike mechanic at the bike shop using this stuff. I got my bottle and put a bit on - by the way, the lid is a little stiff; unscrew the top half as you would a bottle of Sriracha. Ran the chain backwards ten turns or so and wiped it off. This stuff works great; I wouldn't say my chain is silent, but it is definitely very quiet. As others have said, it is a low viscosity oil, and as a result the first time I applied it, some went on the rim (danger to brakes!). Be careful. This does also seem to flush out the gunk better than any other oil, too; after applying and wiping, the rag is often dirty even post-degreasing. This stuff is great, but I do apply rather often. I tried this inside a cable housing, too, and it didn't seem to fix my squeaking issue nor make it worse. Update -- 3 months -- This stuff is still blowing my mind. I wipe my chain down with a dry rag to remove dirt maybe every three rides or so - and my chain still looks brand new, six months after I've bought the bike. It's amazing. My other bike which I use TriFlow on, has its chain black in a matter of a week, despite wiping. This is amazing! Smells good too! I'd suggest you get the small bottle as an applicator, if you will, and the big bottle subsequently to refill it. (I don't see why they give you the sprayer nozzle - who'd use that?)

I tried alot of different bike chain lubes, is it better than all other similar products, certainly not, but for my conditions: MTB, dry dusty desert conditions this lubricant works, keeps my chain drive line quiet and has a fair price. I lube before every dirt ride and deep clean my chain after 4 or 5 rides... I deep clean with rag applied carb cleaner spray and a cotton ear swab to go between the links.... Love this product!

Using this product I have more that doubled the life of my chain (was 2,000 miles, now 4-5,000 mile). The key is daily clean and lube. Here is my process. I purchase a package of cheap white wash clothes to use as rags (fifty cents each lasts a month). The wash cloths have a texture that aids in cleaning. After every ride (every time) - pedal backwards while holding the chain with the rag in the other hand. Pedal backwards 30 revolutions to clean the dirt and water off the chain. Tilt the container down and create a bead of lube on the inside plate of the chain - rotate backwards 5 revs. Switch to the outside plate of the chain. Create a bead - crank backwards 5 revs. Using the same cleaning rag (wash cloth), hold the chain between your fingers and crank backwards 30 revs to remove excess. The entire clean and lube process takes 70 seconds per day. The lube penetrates well. Tomorrow when you ride the chain will run and shift smoothly (like a new chain). This is a great product! One bottle lasts about a year. The hole opening in the applicator is perfect for precise application.

Great chain lube, I've been using this for almost a decade with great success.
