Where to lube apart from chain and how often?

danielsbrewer

Hello,

Newbie type question. Could anyone tell me where I should lube apart from the chain or if you know of a website with pictures that would be great. I have searched around and people say oil the pivot points but I am not sure where that actual means for the gears etec..

And how of ten should you do it? I ride 5 days a week about 12 miles a day.

I am using FInish line Cross Country for the chain but I think you need something lighter for the other bits - 3in1?

MAny thanks

Plus your own undercarriage if you have problems with chafing. For this, Vaseline is probably better than 3-in-1.
