    It’s a bit of a myth that waxed chains don’t do well during winter or in wet conditions. In fact, they perform significantly better in those conditions vs a wet lube.

    The trick in those conditions is to simply wax multiple chains in rotation.

    And go with immersion wax instead of drip. Drip can work as a too up, but not as good as true immersion.

    Most people think it’s more work, especially in bad winter conditions, but that’s because they usually ignore actually cleaning inside their chains when using a wet line 😂

    I’ve been using KMC rust buster chains + immersive wax all winter, and it’s been a dream! Cleaner than wet lube during dry summer months!
