Title: Chain Link Rivet Question
Post by: Tor-King on April 17, 2017, 01:48:27 PM
I am currently going through my bike and need to replace the master link with a rivet link (DO NOT like the idea of a master with clip...).  My rivet link did not come with grease.  Is there a comparable grease that I may use?  Is there anything really special with the grease that usually comes with the rivet link?

I can't vouch for this product. I just did a google search and was able to come up with this.

I know of another product that will work perfectly but it is prohibitively expensive.

DuPont Krytox grease
