This business model sucks. TT; get with the program and start watering the stuff down (like everyone else does). You'll never make any money this way. Just because it works great, better than anything else, doesn't make it a good idea. How can you expect to afford the new olympic size swimming pool, the Lamborghini and the trophy wife this way?

FWIIW NFS is going to start marketing a wee bit more broadly this year so it will start to appear in LBS across the USA g-d willing and the creek don't rise ;)
Let me see if my LBS would be interested in carrying it. It's a little hard to throw down 25 bucks for a bottle of lube that I haven't tried. The shipping really kills it.

It will be the last lube you will ever try. It seriously is that good and I'd say that a bottle will last 18 months on one road bike, easily.

Any shops in Boston stocking NFS?
re: NFS Chainlube & Race Grease: The wait is over
^^ You can order it. No need to search for a shop as far as I know.
This stuff is good and it cleans off easily too. No need to scrub the crap out of your chain with the chain cleaning contraption. A good wipe down with a rag removes any muck and makes the chain sparkle.
Need better marketing. Long Island seems to be hooked on Boeshield T9.
re: NFS Chainlube & Race Grease: The wait is over
I know I can order online, but I just cleaned all my chains yesterday, so if I could pick it up in a store today, that would be ideal. :)

No sir not in Boston...yet. Are you anywhere near the IF factory? They have a huge box of NFS.

You couldn't be more 100% right. (That will get the pedants in a slather)

Strong work young man. Folks GravelBike is running this campaign on the hurry up. We love him. Link his site, tweet it and sing it to the cheap seats.
GREAT slogan.
I REALLY need to get you good and drunk,

Saw some NFS the other day at Wissahickon Cyclery in Chestnut Hill, PA. I don't regret ordering it before they got it in stock.
This stuff works great to loosen up seized hubs someone put away wet at the end of cx season.

Hey TT, is the NFS close enough to 10W mineral oil to use a few drops to lube my Mavic freehubs?

It seems to be working well for C.K. and DT-Swiss I can't speak for traditional pawl-type hubs where I've always used a light coating of Phil Wood solid grease or Outer Space Green Shimano Grease.
re: NFS Chainlube & Race Grease: The wait is over
I'm obviously a huge NFS fan, but I would recommend trying DuMonde Tech's Freehub Oil (not their grease) in your Mavic freehub. It works really well, IME-slash-ATMO.

Thanks, will do. I'll keep the NFS on the chain, right where I can smell it.
re: NFS Chainlube & Race Grease: The wait is over
I used NFS in in all my hub bearings and free hub mechanicals. I've found so far it to be excellent. Also used it on the internals of my ensuite door knod. That thing is oh so nice to turn now.
