PRODUCT INFORMATION
COMPATIBILITY
Peaty’s Speed Grease is compatible with all oils of a mineral or synthetic nature except for pag (polyalkylene glycol) based products.
ADHESION TO METALLIC PARTS?
The number one requirement for a grease is that it lubricates really well.
In order for it to lubricate really well, a good grease needs molecules that flow over each other easily (less drag) and coat the metal surface thoroughly and evenly, to prevent metal on metal contact (which results in parts wearing out).
In nerd talk, our base oils have been formulated using synthetic esters with a marked polarity.
Ok... Who’s ester and why is she in your oil?!
Ester isn’t a woman, it’s a variant of synthetic oil! Esters are more expensive than straight synthetic oils because the ingredients all have to be collected from natural sources and then synthesised in much smaller quantities than regular synthetic oil.
The number one reason to use ester oil is how well it bonds to surfaces. Ester oil has an electrochemical bond because the ester molecule is polar, sort of like a fridge magnet. It is attracted to metal and sticks like peaty’s hand to a fresh cool pint of Yorkshire ale.
Also, because of this electrochemical charge, the grease naturally distributes itself evenly over a surface since each molecule will repel away from each other - like trying to push two positive ends of a magnet together.
WORKSHOP SPIN TEST
For all you doubters out there... Here's the spin test un-edited and in full so you can see there's been no camera or editing trickery!
For this test we took two identical DT Swiss '350' front hubs and removed all bearings. We then took four identical replacement 6903 bearings and replaced the grease in one pair of bearings with Speed Grease.
One equal spin of both wheels reveals the hub packed with Speed Grease span for over 2.5x longer!

I loved using PEATYS product

Was looking for some grease for my Hope freehub after stripping it down and cleaning it.This is perfect stuff, rolls fast now. Good value for the size of the tube too will last ages.

Would highly recommend this product used today

Serviced MTB rear hub after spring broke. Amazed how much gunk was in there! Now spins for ages in the stand with this light grease. Yet to see if it washes out. Ordered another.
D
My cable actuated dropper had been sticky and generally not performing well. Cleaned up and serviced with this and it's running like new now!
K
This grease is amazing, fitted it to my bmx bearings which did the better job than most grease out there, would use it on other things as it’s highly durable and the seller is greatWould buy again
l
Saved me a lot of money at the bike repair shop using this product and doing it myself
M
very nice product to make maintenance on bike...works well! thanks
S
I have not used it but all Peaty’s products are very good quality. Like bike lube, tube sealant and even cleaning products.

Bought it to help keep the bearing in place while i replaced the rear wheel bearings, all good would recommend.
H
This is great grease! I used it on the metal dust cap covers on my car, and it worked like a charm. I imagine we’ll find other uses for it around the house—probably fixing squeaky doors, stubborn hinges, etc…There’s a lot of product in the tube, so unless I decide to grease every surface in my house, I’ll be set for a while. It’s really easy to use and the consistency is great-it’s not messy/liquidy at all. Great value for money and highly recommended!

Good

Its good grease but after using it for a while I still prefer muc off grease
M
I thought this was a special black grease when i ordered it.I used it anyway and worked well.

I bought this for use when servicing my road bike freehub. I ride big miles so I periodically tear down the freehub and thoroughly clean the pawls, and toothed drive ring and replace the bearings. In the past I have used Peaty's blue bicycle assembly grease for re-greasing everything and always achieved good results. However, I read that this stuff was better for fast moving parts like freehubs. Its definitely a bit lighter in viscosity and just seems to stick enough to do the job in this application. After re-assembly and a few long rides I can definitely say this grease has made my freehub spin a bit faster and hold a bit more speed. I'm very happy with the initial results but only time will tell how well it protects the parts from wear.
s
Good quality and does the job
