Grease lock-ring thread?

felix.london

I have just removed my cassette for a proper clean (dang, that's shiny! 8) )

Is it advisable to put some grease on the lock-ring thread before putting it back on?

Thanks.

Same here.

if people want to put something on then an Anti Sieze is more suitable than grease as it does not move.

done up properly, it won't move with some grease on

but yes, anti-seize > grease > nothing
