I'm not sure why there is any hesitation about cleaning & relubing the jockey wheels. Each wheel is held in by a single bolt. Remove the wheel and then seperate the small metal covers in the center. Inside you'll find a steel or ceramic bushing. Clean all the parts and reassemble with some synthetic grease and your done. The alternative is to to toss both jockey wheels and buy new ones. I have a Shimano XT rear derailleur and have cleaned and relubed both jockey wheels numerous times.
Please remember to use grease and not WD-40 which as Tonto says is not a lubricant.

I'll have to check the price for pool salt again. I'm paying 120THB for 25kg regular non-iodized TRS salt 2.6% moisture content.

I wish I had known about that kind of chlorinator when we built our pool 6 years ago. It's not that difficult to maintain the ph manually but an auto system would have made life that much easier.
I've seen the pool salt at one dealer here in Udon Thani but couldn't understand why it was much more expensive than the regular salt. Now I know.
Can you please explain why adding regular salt (non-iodized) to the water could damage the chlorinator cell?

I would like to add a few minor points to your post please.
1. you will have to add salt to the pool if you lose water to anything other than evaporation as only the water (without salt) will evaporate. ie the rainy season will add lots of free water to your pool probably forcing you to drain water from the pool. In this case you will also need to top up your salt.
2. chlorine levels will remain stable as long as you remember to add cyanauric acid to the pool water to protect the chlorine from being neutralized by the sun.
Now for a question. How does your chlorinator control your ph? I usually have to add a little acid to my pool from time to time to control the ph especially after adding water from the loacl water supply.

Here's the Bicycle Thailand site:

The list of bike shops in Thailand is not 100% complete but it sure is a great help. There's an excellent well stocked shop in Bang Kapi - Lat Phrao Bike Shop and their prices are hard to beat as well. They seem to have whatever you want in stock all the time. It's not large but the staff are knowledgeable and happy to help. The only thing I didn't see much of was apparel.
