bike lubes, compared to generic lubricants and greases of the same spec or better, area always more expensive. don't undeestimate the power of walmart to stock cheap %chapthis is how marketing works. my point is simply that any heavy duty all temp all weather grease will work as well or better than "bike grease" that you guy at a "bike shop." they are selling you something that works at a given markup. the reality is that they have a tub of red all purpose heavy duty grease from walmart too, but they put it in a little jar and charge you triple for the "parts and labor."
