    I'm using the Dupont Chainsaver with the Grease Ninja for most of the season now & so far, I like the Dupont stuff better than the Maxima lube & the Grease Ninja cuts greasing time in half & it's sooo easy to use! Anyone finds you have to lube more often with the Dupont, or it's just the way the lube is?

    The DuPont stuff doesn't fly off. Could be that with the DuPont use fewer applications might be the trick.

    I don't have a Grease Ninja of any kind. A short piece of Tygon and a couple of wire ties works for me. Burn some holes in the Tygon with a hot needle or I used a safety pin. I have also lubed chains by squirting the chain with lubricant while the bike is up on the centerstand in gear and running applying the lube to the rollers rather than just one side of the chain.

    ^ knew a mechanic that lost his thumb doing that, its a "no-no" be safe fer gawds sake! Story goes, he had the bike with the rear wheel off the ground doing a fast chain lube, happened to have a rag in his hand, it caught the rear sprocket and dragged his thumb into the to "works" it was not a happy ending.

    I heard the same story only it was the guy's dick and the bike was a Harley.

    The lube is applied to the rollers not the one open side of the chain.

    THe Ninja will pay for itself in lube savings, not to mention it does a great job in less than half the time. I like it.
