I need to buy some and surprised to see so many different types! Which would you guys recommend for a mountain bike - used mainly in dry conditions?

Cheers

Thanks Steve. Out of interest how often / how many miles do you oil chain? And do you simply give it a spin whilst oiling or clean the chain with a rag or something first?

Apologies for newbie questions but last time i oiled a chain was 20+ years ago with a can of 3-in-1... later to be followed by a clip round earoles by me mam for ruining me Farah's punch
