I bought this product to use with the new Shimano SPD-SL.

I bought this product to use with the new Shimano SPD-SL pedals that I have installed on my road bike. I got the idea from a Park Tool YouTube video on changing bike pedals. The only advice I can give is to use it sparingly. I thought I was running low on the amount I smeared on the threads and noticed that after tightening, the extra grease ended up on all of my cranks. Trying to clean it is very difficult and messy, so apply as little as possible to get the job done.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Only available in black

Decent but could be better

Real lube is pretty good but I had some issues. This might sound like a first world problem at first, but you have to cut the end off, which can be painful. I ended up drilling because I had so many problems. Then, secondly, the tube was actually not completely filled. There is a lot of air in the tube, like in a bag of chips. You expect more than you actually get. Overall 3 stars for the issues but the pasta is actually pretty good. Works great for what it was designed for.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Bad

Better than green!

The stuff works great. Its particles increase friction, which significantly reduces torque, preventing you from over-tightening the bolts. I probably use this lube more than my regular green lube, but it has its own quirks and blue is my favorite color, so I'm biased. If you have high quality aluminum, titanium or carbon components, this connection is fantastic. Highly recommend having this in your tool box, bin bin, bike belt bag (you do). This is definitely an important item now that I have…

Pros
  • GOLS certificate
Cons
  • Ugly packaging

You can use lube but it should last longer

You apply it to joints and threads that you don't want to move relative to each other so they can be disassembled in the future. As I and had no idea what the difference between Anti-Seize and Polylube is, check out Park Tools' video showing the difference. When sealing ball bearings, use a polylube, not a lubricant. However, Polylub can be used to lubricate the threads. So why anti-capture? They should last longer and also prevent galvanic corrosion between dissimilar materials. This might not

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • I'll add later

Amazing Carriage and Thread Lubricant on the market!

Amazing composition, it really works. I'd say it's a lot for the price, but since it's made in America, you get what you pay for. It will last a long time as long as you use it in small quantities, not only is it perfect for my bottom bracket, but also for threaded surfaces such as stop bolts, axles, flare nuts, axle nuts, threaded washers, etc. I use this for limit bolts, my bottom bracket, everywhere with a threaded surface, a hole, etc. My frame shell actually had threads on my bottom…

Pros
  • The best in its niche
Cons
  • Appearance

Essential mix for most DIYers and hobbyists of all weight classes

Have you ever seen a fat man who likes 21-pound full-suspension mountain bikes or 11-pound road bikes and has titanium bolts in an aluminum or carbon frame? to save 30 grams? on the total weight of the bike? Or, even worse, installing a titanium bolt in a titanium frame? (not recommended even with anti-seize paste) I've seen and sadly seen the damage done when someone tries to force out the same seized titanium nut or bolt a year later, which then has to be drilled out, or in some cases even…

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Trendy
