.....SINGER SEWING MACHINE OIL,
Thats right the stuff made for sewing machines,i picked up a tin of this from a sewing shop for £2.20,Ive tested this for a period of 3 months on my chain, cables, derailers and brake pivots,i also use this stuff for cleaning my rims heres the pros & cons:
Pros:
Cheap
Effective
Doesn't pick up as much dust as other lubricants
Comes in a easy applicator
Cons:
Not entirely water resistant*
*If riding in wet conditions i recommend applying this every 2 days or so to exposed parts.
If anyone has had experience with this let me know of your results.
