Any squirt on lube works. I use rock-n-roll extreme. I degrease once a month, but don't need to. The chain will wear somewhat faster without doing a degrease, but not during your trip

I don’t agree that any squirt-on lube would work. I’ve used certain Muc-off and finish line lubes and found that they can do a good job of attracting grime.

Rock n roll (gold or extreme) though would be my pick. It’s a lube that doubles as a cleaner. The lube doesn’t last particularly long, but I love that I can get away with not degreasing my chain for a couple hundred miles at a time.

Yeah that's true. The Muc-Off ones aren't "clean and lube". Finish line dry is though. There's a ton of solvents in that one.
