Skylark Posted July 31, 2014 Share Thank you https://www.avt.bike/ Is the Chris king grease for their hub bearings?Looks like it is more like a liquid lube than a grease, interesting, I have noticed bearings well packed with grease does add some "friction" definitely slows a wheel done/doesn't spin as freely.

ichnusa Posted July 31, 2014 Share Yes, quite liquid for a grease, but made for that purpose. Works a charm! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skylark Posted July 31, 2014 Share When I service American Classic or Mavic freehubs ,I use Finish Line wet lube. I've tried ATF gearbox lube, which is very close to the viscosity of FL wet lube, in my Hope freehubs, appeared to work perfectly. Do you use that in hub bearings ever? I'm pretty keen to give that a try, especially on Hope hubs which have such a good sealing system so there's not much chance of bearing washout, should reduce rolling resistance marginally vs fully packing them with grease.

Helpmytrap Posted August 1, 2014 Share Not really bicycle related but still has the cycle part in...my latest purchase with only 5520km on the clock to help with fuel saving and travel, bought from Kawasaki South (Neville cragg's place - Suzuki South) Interesting that the tires are blue so "close" to the centre line. Usually you only get it on the two outer quarters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
