    Hot wax for chains. Seems like a good idea, but at £50 a pop, is it more snake oil than chain wax?

    Presumably it’s mostly paraffin wax, so there must be a reasonably priced way to do this. Thoughts?

    Corson could sell us paraffin and we could turn it into wax, oh wait…..

    Ha - might triple the life of a chain used by a pro team, which probably get binned every couple of hundred miles. Would take more than some wax to triple the life of one of my chains, especially the one in a complete chain case!
