What kind of lube to use on Shimano chain?
I use Pro Gold chain lube and use a chain stretch checker (Park Brand) to check for wear. Note that this particular chain is for 10 speed Shimano Road Bike drivelines (105, Ultegra, Dura-Ace) and it does not have a master link. It has a pin that you press into the links.
