I ride about 20-30 mi everyday and a little more on weekends. I have a road bike and it’s a bit dry where I live.

When I asked a question about degreasing/lubing my bike, I got a ton of different answers - didn’t think that cleaning a bike would be so complicated lol

So the question comes down to what kind of lube do I need to use? I heard that web lube is for rainy condition so I won’t be using that, but what exactly is a dry lube then? Aren’t all lubes wet? Because they’re oil… so it’s going to be… wet… so I’m a bit confused.

And how is waxing different from dry lube?
