As many have learned over the years, Mavic requires the use of mineral oil for lubricating their freehub body internals. Use of a heavier oil, light grease, or any other lubricants will actually restrict the hub internals from freedom of movement as they get sticky or build up. Many a cyclist and mechanic made the error of using too viscous a product. Mavic now offers their blend of Freehub Oil in this 50ml bottle to avoid confusion and eliminate the artifacts of FTS-L freehub bodies tossed aside in frustration.

Mavic recommends this Freehub Oil for FTS, FTS-L, FTS-X and ITS4 freehub bodies. We have found it is best to wear a rubber glove of some kind, apply a small mount of oil and distribute it over the pawls and springs, as well as the internal features and bushing, as well as the receiving parts of the hub axle. A little goes a long way. There is no reason to over-apply or pour it on. You will just leach the excess out and attract dirt and dust. Keep your Mavic freehub bodies spinning freely and quietly, while reducing friction and wear to the internals with Mavic Freehub Oil.
