So I'm needing to clean the seals by lifting dirt away from underneath them and wanting a universal shock/fork lube that won't interact badly with all my dropper KS, shock Fox and fork RS.
Anyone know of this magical fluid and where one might purchase?
I use Juicy Lubes for juice over most of mine, there is nothing specific about any of the bits you describe so nothing should react badly to any of them
Nice1 Mike - thanks for that info, that is all 😀
As a "grease": PM600 miltary grease from liquid-o-ring
Pinkbike recommend this oneball stuff

any silicone lube will clean the dirt out a little bit.
If it needs greasing then some slick honey or similar.
As above, slick honey for actual greasing (or sram judy butter), and silicon spray or fork oil for everything else. Fork Juice is just glazier's silicon spray so you can buy it elsewhere for less, but it does work really nicely- it's thicker than standard silicon spray
I got some fancy stuff that Jungle Products distribute with input from TF tuned who use it iirc or have some kind of input into it's ''dna makeup''
Better be good ;-d nahhhh should be!
Got me some ceramic lube too whilst I was in spendy mode haha!
Silicone spray, Halfords do it in a spray can for a few ££, use the supplied straw and DON'T!!! get it on disc rotors. After most rides I spray a bit on the stanchions , compress the forks a few times, wipe away the ring of crap that appears, and repeat. Keeps things clean and slippery.
I bought the drip on stuff instead of the aerosol can stuff and works a treat, turns out my parts seals had been doing a mighty fine job but that now everything is working a lot smoother as has loosened up the movement/reduced friction on them.
GOOD STUFF SAYS I ;-D
I do prefer Fork Juice to the Fenwicks version that all most of the local shops seem to sell.
Whoever distributes Fenwicks seems to be very hardline on no competing products in shops which would be fine if the competitors weren’t frequently better... Easily addressed by not buying, but annoying all the same.
