Why do you say the go-no go gauge is not as accurate as a ruler. If you want exact stretch, use one of the adjustable units, measure in several spots. I can't see a ruler being better.

When I was riding 3 days a week 100-200 miles per week, I was cleaning the chain every week and after every wet ride. I use missing links, so popping chain off is about 10 seconds, 9 of which is finding link. Throw chain in ultrasonic cleaner. Blow out with air, lube, reinstall. Clean cassette and front crank at same time.

I use Finish Line Dry for most rides and Wet for days expecting rain.
