I just installed my Pegas Chucks on my EX-21.  Does anyone use white grease on their tension lever?  I used it all the time on my original lever, so just wondering.

By the way, a shout out to Denny for the awesome customer service.

I may be wrong but I don't think they require any grease.. the original wore out quicker without some lube as the design created friction between two nylon or plastic parts.. but the Pegas has a metal cam action incorporated into the design and I think the cam and parts are available separately.. and also made with self lubricating metals.. I'm pretty sure I was told by Bob Duncan or someone that no lubrication was required and in fact if lubed. could actually weaken the plastic lever etc..
