    Dry lube(graphite) seems to work better than anything oil based. Oil and grease just collect dust(silica) that makes the wear much faster.

    I used FK teflon lined rod ends and replace them every year.

    Petroleum sprays are not compatible with teflon lined rod ends. Use a PTFE dry lube spray instead.

    I like teflon as well , but if you are gone use conventual type rod ends , never lube with WD40 like I still see some do , we wash good after every race and lube with shaffer pentro 90 , its a thin lube that will last the whole night ....
