Santa Cruz UK sell them, expensive though.
You could refill the cartridge with some high quality boat grease.

Ah, found them on SC UK. £9 doesn't seem too bad?? Need a replacement nipple anyway.

Go for it, lot easier and less mucky.
How long did your original tube last Rich?

Bike was new in 2010 BUT it's one of three so has only done about 1.5k miles in that time. Also, i always put off the greasing until latest possible because it's such a hit and miss faff.

Ordered a week ago and nothing received. Emailed SC UK/Jungle (Stif Cycles?) and no response 3 days later. Called them and…they have no grease…and don't know when it will arrive. Thanks for letting me know SC. 😐
