If the chain is dirty, wipe it clean. Add a drop of lube on each link in the chain and turn pedals backwards in order to move the chain.

Turn the bike upside down. Apply the grease to the chain. Turn the bike pedals to make sure the grease is applied to all the gears. You also want to grease the wheel bearings. Work out a maintenance schedule for your bike. According to how much you ride your bike.

It is best to use a teflon based aerosol spray. This means that the lubricant can be easily applied to areas on a bike that would otherwise be difficult to reach. Coat the chain, and cogs (and any other area you wish to grease) liberally with the spray and make sure you re apply after wet weather.

Get a syringe from a auto store. Every par that move's stick the tip in and force grease in.Might have to loosen some bolt's to grease the neck bearing's,crank.

Bike grease needs to be applied liberally with the hands onto your bike. It can get messy but it's really worth it in the end.
