To commute or not? opinions required

I have found that my bike has needed an oily wipe once a week and a drivetrain clean/ service once every two weeks. That has been after riding in salty slush, rain and dry salty roads. It started out with a new Taya chain and a Falcon 8spd cassette. 6 weeks in, it seems to be holding up well.
