I feel like mine has needed to be adjusted in short time periods, cause you know, it tends to grow with usage, I think that as a result of riding style, I tend to sprint a lot, basically almost on every start, well I like the G forces but also my bike needs some tuneups, so it no sounds like sht on low revs. It, generally is always good lubricated with the proper lube. Is it big deal for chains when riding like that? Is the chain growing reduced on better quality chains?

I feel like lubricants dont help too much avoiding the chain growing fact.

I was thinking the same, that previous owner installed a crapy chain, which is the reason it grows so fast, im about to service it since theres no more than a quarter of inch to do the last possible adjustment. Also im kinda brute full throttle once I got the green light hehe, wondering if a better quality one can really hold it. By the way, to mention that I tried one chain lubricant, I put a lot of it expecting to blast the dirt away at the same time once I pass a cleaning rag, it worked at certain grade, i mean, the excess came all black, and I cleaned it with the rag, i did not remove enough, so got a incredible mess around bottom side, and whats worst, the chain got this red corrosion at the third day, so lubricant is not really helping.
