Applying the right grease can safeguard your bicycle's components, extend their lifespan, and boost performance. Park Tool's PolyLube 1000 polyurea lubricant is tailor - made for bike maintenance and repair. It works great with all types of ball bearings, threads, or press - fit parts on a bike, such as headsets, bottom brackets, cranks, pedals, and hubs. This lubricant keeps moisture at bay and has super - high shear strength, protecting key parts even in tough conditions.
To use Park Tool PolyLube 1000, first, clean the part of your bike you want to lubricate with a suitable cleaner. Then, apply a thin layer of the lubricant evenly on the surface, like ball bearings, threads, or press - fit areas. For headsets, bottom brackets, cranks, pedals, and hubs, make sure to get the lubricant into all the nooks and crannies. When using, avoid over - applying as it can attract dirt. Store the lubricant in a cool, dry place. Check the lubricated parts regularly, and re - apply the lubricant if you notice signs of wear or reduced performance, like squeaking or rough movement.
