r/bikewrench on Reddit: Best grease for general bike maintenance
September 14, 2022 -
What is the best type of grease for general bike maintenance? For everything from cup and cone hub bearings to installing BBs and cranksets to seatposts?
Something common which I can buy in bulk for relatively cheap (in 3oz/85g cans for my Park Tool GG-1), not like a super expensive Park Tool tube.
Currently I've been using John Deere SD Polyurea grease because I can get in in bulk cheap and I believe it's very similar to the Park Tool PolyLube 1000.
I can easily get any grease for automotive, agricultural, and industrial use for fairly cheap in bulk.

You're best off buying a good automotive grease. It will be alot cheaper than a bike specific grease for the amount and will serve it's purpose just as well, discernibly.

A $6 tube of PolyLube will last you for years. I really don't get the obsession people here have with saving a total of $4 over 20+ years.

What is the appeal of Lithium grease?
For bicycles, nothing. It is a good general purpose grease with high temperature/high speed resistance (which has been surpassed by calcium complex greases in some instances). Calcium greases tend to have better moisture repellent properties, so for bicycles are perfectly adequate. More on reddit.com

September 14, 2022Any good automotive products (lube/degrease/grease) for bicycles?
I use automotive white lithium grease in my shop. Very inexpensive compared with the Park brand stuff. I also use automotive never seize, brake cleaner, hydraulic mineral oil for brakes, and other appropriate oils for suspension. Not so much for newer Fox and RockShox, but some lower quality forks can use appropriate motorcycle shock oil. More on reddit.com

How to: When to use which grease? – Dynamic Bike Care
February 24, 2023 - Assembly Paste Pro: we kept it simple here; if you want to assemble bike parts, this is the absolute best product to use. Definitely don’t use it to lubricate, as it might even slow you down. If you are looking for second to none protection from water, salt, dirt, dust or whatever element you can think of; Assembly Paste Pro is your friend. No parts will get stuck and corrosion has no chance. Every screw you mount, even the ones on your cleats, should have a layer of this grease.

Cleaners will be primarily for the frame, shock, fork, wheels, cranks, and other bigger, un-lubed parts, and a degreaser should be used on the chain, cassette, and chainrings to remove the old lube in prep for a fresh coat. Keeping a bike cleaned regularly can profoundly increase its lifespan.

January 29, 2022 - You can get a big tub of Mobil or another premium grease from any auto parts store, and not pay any more than you would for a tube of Phil’s.

December 25, 2023 - As the bearing rolls, the grease heats up and it turns into a semi oily mixture, over time this will leak out of the seals so they will need repacking. It should be noted that the bearing friction will reduce once they are warm. Competitors in events such as time trials would benefit from “warming” their bike up beforehand.
