So here’s something sort of cool: automatic chain waxing machine! Still in development, but apparently being tested during the Tour by one team.

Any guesses to cost? I’m thinking $800 or more.
To me, the actual removal, waxing and installation isn’t too much work. The biggest pain and time suck was the initial degreasing, but once done, you never have to do it again unless you get another chain. I did 4 chains, so hopefully I have many years until I need to redo my drivetrain.
