Iron Cobra double pedal

[darrenwalker]

Any of you guys got a tip on the best lubricant for iron cobras?..The left spring assembly on my pedals have developed an awful squeak! I was told not to use WD40?
Any advice would be great.
Cheers

Use a really light oil. Sewing machine oil is good, as well as some chain lubricants used for bicycles. I use Tri-Flow on my pedals: http://www.triflowlubricants.com/products/superiorlubricantdrip.html. Works wonders. Your local autoparts store or bike shop should have some good lubes. And no, WD-40 is not a lubricant and should not be used.

Lithium grease is what Axis recommends for their pedals, and I highly doubt it would hurt you Iron Cobras.

I really like the dry lubes. Tri-Flo is good, I tried a dry lube and like it even better.

The dry lubes are just that, dry. They don't attract dirt, which accumulates when using wet lubes, then the mess becomes contaminated, ugly and hard(er) to clean.

After your next bearing cleaning, try some dry lube.
