Reaction Video - Addressing your comments on chain waxing

9682 Video Description In this follow-up, I’m tackling the 130+ comments from my recent chain waxing video. My goal is to simplify the process and dispel the myths that make chain waxing seem more complicated than it really is. I discuss my "lazy" protocol that has yielded 20,000 miles on just two chains, address safety concerns with crockpots, and explain why you don't need ultrasonic cleaners or thermometers to get professional results. Whether you're a skeptic or a "wax-curious" rider, let's keep it simple.
