Fork oil?

jdk2014

Suntour Radion x1 Air forks. Should I oil the stanchions? I have various oils in the garage. Fully synth engine oil, 3in1, silicone spray....olive oil in the kitchen. Can I use any of these or should I get some purpose made oil. Or, can I use any of these until I get some proper stuff?

Olive oil

Get some proper stuff - I use a couple of drops of Brunox fork lube but I have used Finishline Wet Lube in the past

I like shock oil - don't use kitchen oil

Olive oil but must be extra virgin from Southern Greece.

Fork Juice works great for me, lasts a while too. A few people on here are paranoid about aerosols around bikes but as long as you're careful with covering your brakes/discs you'll be fine ;-)

Most chefs are going for rapeseed oil . I perfer fork juice.
