| What type of grease is used on the sliding pins in rear brake caliper? If graphite grease, where can I find this grease? |

| Red rubber grease. If you buy a 500g tub be warned you'll be using it for years, literally. There are people selling smaller quantities on ebay now though. |

Hi Andy.
Thanks for the reply. When I purchased some replacement seals for the sliding pins, a sachet of graphite grease was included. Hence the enquiry about graphite grease.
I have a tub of red rubber grease, which will last me a lifetime! |

| Red rubber grease is far better and is all I will ever use. |
