Thanks to all you lefty owners in advance.

Taken from the Cannondale instruction manual:

Re-apply a fresh heavy coating of grease. Any clean high-quality bicycle bearing grease selected for riding temperatures and environment can be used.
We assemble forks at our factory using LUBRIPLATE GR-132.

It does recommend (Royal Purple Ultra Performance Grease) but I can't find any in the UK unless someone knows of a sneaky stock somewhere?

Would Stendec Easy Glide Fork Grease do the job nicely?

You can buy it from [url= http://oilwarehouse.co.uk/acatalog/Royal_Purple_other_oils_and_products.html#afuelcleaner ]oil warehouse[/url]...£13.84 a tube. To be honest though, you could buy any type of bearing grease. It's not going to get the kind of wear/heat a bearing in an electric motor or such like is going to get. Probably would be a third of the price too.

Any good quality bearing grease will do. I use some Pace stuff.
