One more satisfied customer, I guess! NFS is the one lube that from reports I would consider using in place of Molten Speed Wax. Must get around to buying some.
Question to you sandy/dusty/silty surface riders: I'd be interested to hear how NFS performs in dry conditions of this sort. I'm talking about the sort of surfaces where even a single 10 mile ride will coat everything from top tube to drivetrain and disc calipers in a thick coating of dust. (Dust is the principal reason for using fenders on my Matthews; doesn't keep all the dust off, but it certainly lessens the amount on things above the knee.) Also, for longer-term users: Did Michael overdo the application? Do you really need to put a drop on only 12 links out of N?
