Grease for V8 and V12's

Bike-Rich

Hi all,

I have a pair of both DMR V8's and V12's. Looking to re-grease both.
Now the v8 has a service port where I ned to syringe some liquid in but the V12 I imagine I will need some thicker stuff to actual coat the axle in?

What types should I be looking at guys?
Also looking at getting a tub of grease for other bike jobs, is there a 'one kind does all'? For example, would it be possible to put some grease in a syringe and use it on the v8's?

Thanks,

Any cycle grease. And he same for both.

Halfords Teflon is good and cheap.

Thanks guys,

so there is no problem using a watery (thin) type of grease, i've seen some grease in a tub and it was like a hair gel substance.
But Teflon-based grease is ok for a grease jobs right?

Thanks,

Why? It will just wash out easier.
Why would you want to any way?

I'm just thinking how best to get the grease in the service hole of the v8's.
If you see this:

It is in a syringe and I imagine to be quite running so it will get in the hole.

Whilst this has a much thinker appearance:

I just want to know if I need to get separate grease for certain parts or if I can get a largish tub and have done with it (and put some in a syringe for the service holes on pedals).

Many thanks,

cant you just buy a syringe and stuff it full of whatever grease you have handy?
