Lube matter?

[Team Luke]

im just woundering does it matter what sort of lube i use on my bearings?
AS i can get free lube(Desinged for sex) from my local infomation shop :P
Or do i need to buy "special" lube

[Drkkain]

Hmm, i wouldn't think it would matter what kind of lube you use, although sex lube might eventually get dry, crusty, and make the bearing slow down. try it and see how it goes.
If it slows it down,clean your bearing.

You need to buy some bearing lube. Pole or Hole lube will just screw up your bearings.

I used some Wet Platinum (silicone based lube) on my bearings a few months ago, they've been running great ever since. Actually, they ran better than they ever did b4. And they say that silicone based lube takes years to dry. But I'm no expert at bearings, I am at lube tho

[crazy_dave]

Haha when i saw this thread i was thinking something completely different!

Lawl.

yeh silicon spray is the way or what skaterat sed

[Greenday]

Get speed cream or rocket lube. Sex lube was designed to last about an hour or so. Then it'll probably screw up your bearings.

Good point. I reccomend him not using it.

There is a silicon lube you can get at most bike shops called Triflon that works real good on skate bearings.

[Mindcrime]

^^^ Triflow, to be exact

[BlindSkater]

so if sex lube last a hour and a silicone based lube lasts longer, then y dont we use silicone as a sex lube? "Whats the matter 'Slick', Can't handle the ride?"

Someones adventurous.

Just use Bone's Speed Cream or the like. Not worth messing up good bearings with sex lube. I would think it would get crusty or powdery as it's not really meant to be used days on end under high friction.

I fear serious infections from the chemicals ...lol...And why do you need it to last that long? It is also for high temperature use. Is having sex that hot and long? Buakaka....

And yeah, you should follow what others said Team Luke. Get some certified bearing lube. Poles & Holes. Good one Colin. Oh yeah...Any report on the wheel deal? I left you a message in BDS.
