Can anyone advise the best lube to lube the bushings on my Giant NRS rear suspension. I suspect a dry type lube would be best, or possibly a silicone or Teflon type, but often my best guess has turned to be totally incorrect.

I have removed and cleaned them all, but suddenly doubted that WD40 would be best as I think it wouuld attract dust into the areas.

Thanks

I have used a product called NeverSieze, it is silver and quite messy. It is a Moly type lube. Have used it on my '02 Jamis and the bushings are like new. I also have just starting to use a wax type moly chain lube which does not attract dirt. That might be the cat's meow for those bushings.

You might want to write Giant or the maker of the shock (if it's a shock pivot) and ask them. Often, they may post this as a FAQ.

I have a Fisher Cake and Fisher recommended grease. If applied carefully and only to the sliding surfaces, the grease is not exposed to dust/dirt.

I've heard of some pivots not requiring any lube.
