the speedo cable is in a tight space so it's quite hard to get the lubing device in there. I use silicone spray (thiner than chain lube) and lube with a straw till it fill up to the top of the cable, wait a bit so gravity will get it down, then I use a compressed air can with a straw a give a blast. The blast of will force the liquid go farther down the cable. Repeat the fill + blast of air about 10 times... dan On Fri, Jul 5, 2019 at 10:05 AM Neil N <musomuso@gmail.com> wrote: > IIRC, some chain lubes are the "dry" type or rather, are not a thicker > fluid type lube.
