Unfortunately Redline is not sold in Germany.
But thanks....the technical description is very similar to the plastilube
grease.

How often to change bearings?
Mine did last several years now.

Cheers
Chris

Chris - Take a look at Redline CV-2 fully synthetic grease. I used this
product for the first time this year during the Topeka (Heartland) Kastner
Cup event where the ambient temperature was 45C and the track well over 50.
Heartland is a 2.5 mile track but is basically an up and down point and
squirt track which is very demanding on brakes. This is background to the
following assessment of CV-2 - tremendous heat was generated at the front
axle which was hard to deal with because of the high ambient temperature and
the layout of the track - the grease showed absolutely no degradation when
the wheel bearings were checked after the event.

Hi,

after my left front wheel bearing destructed itself I'm looking for a better
grease.
At a catalogue I found a stuff that is called Plastilube and should stand
250 degree centigrade and does resist high pressure.

Is that a stuff that I can use instead of normal grease?

Cheers
Chris
