Question:
What is the brand grease that is pre pack in the hub assembly. I noticed on the install video you have, the grease is green, but the extra grease being pumped in is red. Is that ok to mix? Please tell me what type and brand grease is pre packed. Thank you. I own a 2018 flagstaff micro lite 25fbls.

Hey Mike,
Any lithium based multi purpose grease is great to use when packing your hubs. Color does not matter as much as getting the correct type of grease. As long as it is a lithium based multi purpose grease you will be set. Something like # L11315 I would go with. Different brands make the same grease with different colors which is why mixing the color is not an issue. There is not a specific brand used in all of our hubs, the important thing is that it is that lithium based grease.
