I know I know, any grease is better than no grease. but seriously, what kind of grease do i buy if i went to Advance auto parts or something. 

I had replaced my levers to black levers a while back. Did not know you had to grease them until recently, when I noticed they kind of get snagged and dont freely move.   :icon_confused:

No, no, no, no, no, :icon_exclaim: recent posts say not to use grease but some stuff called teflon/ptfe or something else other than grease - apparently grease traps dirt and is no good at all :icon_rolleyes:
