I had my new Specialized 'Allez', worked on a couple weeks ago. Ever
since then, when I ride it, I get oil spewed all over my right calf. I
took it in, again, last week and, they checked the chain. The tech
said, after he wiped it off and, checked it out that, it should be fine.
Well, It is still getting on my leg. Any ideas on, how I can fix this
irritating problem?

Well, It is still getting on my leg. Any ideas on, how I can fix this
irritating problem?Use a different kind of lubricant on the chain. I've had good luck with
the "Finish Line" series of products. -

yet! (in my opinion). -
ProLink is the best lube out there. Although somewhat thinner than most
lubes. Just make sure you clean and lube frequently."Craig" <[email hidden]> wrote in message
