In DC -
Bike Rack (Logan Circle)
Pro Shop (Georgetown)
District Cycle Works (Upper Georgetown P street) <<< New Matt Moore shop very cool place.
If all else fails meet me somewhere in DC near food trucks around 11:30 and we'll make it happen.

re: NFS Chainlube & Race Grease: The wait is over
Too Tall was kind enough to throw me a sample, and I can confirm: one little dab behind each ear is enough to drive the ladies crazy. I was a R&R fan before, but this stuff is awesome-er.

Thanks for the leads. I'll either get into one of them, or take you up on meeting you in town. I can always ride in one day. I'll let you know if I want to do that & we'll set it up. Thanks for the offer!

re: NFS Chainlube & Race Grease: The wait is over
When I changed the chain on the Crumpton I put NFS on it from the get go. This way it seems to last a lot longer than what I was doing before (ie putting it over prolink).

re: NFS Chainlube & Race Grease: The wait is over
Too lazy to go through all 28 pages: took my rig in to quiet a BB30 creak (successful), but forgot to ask the shop not to lube the chain. End result is that they coated it with whatever they use. What's the recommended way to decontaminate it and go back to NFS bliss? Hoping to not have to remove the chain and do a full-degrease, but will if I have to.

Go ride it in the rain. There's a solid chance that whatever they put on will wash right off once it gets wet.

WD40 and a large cotton rag will blast it clean. That's my SOP for the sit-u-ation.

Another live action shot. Finally pulled the Indy Fab down from the hooks three weeks after Ballers and washed off the dirt of Nelson County. Reinstalled some road tires (if you can call Ruffy Tuffys tires that is...) and wiped down the chain with a few drops of NFS. I think I'll ride this bad boy today even though there are no dirt roads here.

LOVE IT :) Still can't believe you are on the same sample size bottle of NFS.
Heads up Washington, DC. NFS is now available at CycleLife located under the freeway in Georgetown.
Go World Cup Go.

Believe me, I wouldn't be if I got to ride as much as I'd like. Last ride was last Monday morning.

re: NFS Chainlube & Race Grease: The wait is over
NFS is now available at Velo Classique in Purcellville, VA. Probably one of the coolest shops you'll ever set foot in, and it's smack dab in the heart of some amazing riding country.

re: NFS Chainlube & Race Grease: The wait is over
So far this year I have hosted 6 Warmshowers guests. Each time, I offer them a chain service where I clean their chain and relube with NFS. So far, not all have taken it, but it is my extra good deed.
I like hosting these people from all over the world.

Another endorsement for TT's magical chain elixir.
I've been using it a few weeks now but didn't want to make any rash proclamations until I'd tested it thoroughly, all I'll say is that it lives up to the hype and laborious chain cleaning regimes seem to be a thing of the past.
However, the best thing of all is the smell,
might dab a bit on my neck tonight rather than my usual Sex Panther

NFS - 100% of the time it works everytime

I was out there outside of operating hours. Peeking through the windows, I felt like a kid just trying to get a look through the front door before getting tossed out.

re: NFS Chainlube & Race Grease: The wait is over
TT, I'd really like to give NFS a try...
There's very fine dust on my usual routes and that in combination with the Morgan Blue "dry" lube I've been using for years makes for black residue after every ride. I'm done with that.
Where in Europe can I order some? I don't think it's available in the Netherlands, is it?

Sounds like you are having the type of "retirement" that my is concerned that I will have...

NFS would LOVE to improve your situation. Unfortunately, we have no european stockists. However, Dario Pegoretti has recently taken posession of a LARGE shipment of bottles with his custom label. Perhaps you can purchase it via his new website?
That notwithstanding, I'll send you some. Please order via NIXFRIXSHUN.COM
