I use the finishline xc wet lube(green cap) sparingly. Works fine for me, but any similar medium weight oil would do.

no not yet, it's just very draggy.

Someone has suggested 3 in 1, but does'nt it have to be a mineral oil. Not sure 3in1 is.

Oooer! I've been using Finish Line Teflon grease in all my Mavic freehubs. Mind you the eldest dates back to circa 2004 and it's still going strong.

I just use some 5/30 semi-synthetic engine oil that I have for top-up on the car engine.
