Alternative to Chain Lube in the developing world
Hey,
I just ran short on some top quality chain lube while near the Lao/ Cambodia boarder. Been trying to get some more for days but when I present the empty spay can and pantomime application, people just stare at me like I have 12 heads. Even in a major city, Pakse, I couldn't find any, or anyone who seemed to get that I was looking for something, anything, to lubricate the chain to my motorcycle. That said, most of my searching/ antics/ and acting were in small towns :-)
Any alternatives?
I bought 'cup-grease' but I think its mainly for large, cold temp joints. In a pinch, I'm gonna mix that with motor oil and apply.
Its dusty and hot as balls here if that helps. My chain is currently dusty too :-(
Thanks
