A place to ask bicycle repair questions, and for bike shop monkeys to share advanced non commercial wrenching resources (no YouTube self promotion). This is only for repair related topics.

You just rotate chains. The time to wax one chain is 95% of the time to wax three chains. If you're riding hundreds of miles a month, maybe you keep five chains in rotation. It then turns into a once every couple month process during the riding season. The cool thing is that it also makes your other drive train components last longer.
Oh, and no black muck when you touch the chain on accident is another great benefit.
