Gerard, I assume you're referring to "general" grease for parts assembly & hub bearings etc. & NOT chain lube!

I use Finish-line now but will be getting/trying other "better" ones once I'm done with these ....... such as these:

Yes, from Mr. Shimano :shock:  .................... I know. There is Campagnolo equivalent but it's hard to find now!

It ain't cheap, but if you want better ....................

 Not all bolts need grease, in fact most bolts shouldn’t have grease on them at all. Anything that needs to be tightened and is exposed to the elements should have anti seize , things like Press fit cups should have a fixing agent on them especially on cervelos as they creak if not done. Carbon posts also need ani seize , so realistically you only need grease for pedal threads QR, and bearings , I use ceramic bearing grease on wheel bearings and Btm Bracket bearings and park tool on the rest. The fixing agent for Press fit cups costs £15 for a tiny nail varnish size bottle
