English_M_in_Bkk Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 I think Red Baron do, give them call. Never seen them at other bikes shops to be honest. www.redbaronbkk.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PattayaClub Posted July 10, 2015 Share Posted July 10, 2015 Order a Scottoiler from the States. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
biker Bob Posted July 11, 2015 Author Share Posted July 11, 2015 Thanks. I will try Red Baron. Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papa al Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 If no luck, I could advise how I made one from a brake fluid resevior and a chainsaw oiler bulb pump and some tubing from the drip irrigation store. Works great. Under $5 total. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brit_Doggie Posted July 11, 2015 Share Posted July 11, 2015 grease might be a hush hush word nowadays but why oil when grease is better for those links. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Works great. Under $5 total. Once you have some time, can you show us some pictures of your DIY chainoiler please. Thanks. My Loobman still works OK. But quality wise its a bit like self made, so not sure i would spend the money again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foodieontour Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 I am interested in an Chain Oiler as well. Does someone has good experience with a shop in Bangkok? Recommendations? RedbaronBKK do not seem to have any. I would look for a not so visible installation otherwise focus on quality. Thx! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanrchase Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 Is a chain oiler necessary these days? Vast majority of chains are sealed o ring. Personally just "paint" some engine oil on mine once a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaorop Posted July 14, 2015 Share Posted July 14, 2015 grease might be a hush hush word nowadays but why oil when grease is better for those links. where a chain wears the most and therefore stretches is on the internal pins and bushings even oil just on the outer rollers is of little help and grease can never get in there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thaiguzzi Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 And grease attracts all sorts of muck. Worst thing for an exposed chain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally just "paint" some engine oil on mine once a month. So do i but a couple of months ago i went up to Chiang Mai and half way there the chain was bone dry. I have tried expensive stuff but it doesn't seem to last longer than normal oil, that is why i want a chain oiler. Jan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
