Default Chris King rear hub - Grease?

Anyone know where I can get (mail order) some specially formulated, low shear, "RingDrive" grease?

p.s. I'm also trying to contact CK.

I get mine directly from Chris King. They are usually very good to deal with. Friendly and swift.

According to them a

"10W synthetic oil may be substituted. Do not subsitute other brand of grease, as they may be to
sticky for the helix of the RingDrive. Running the hub on oil will cause the RingDrive to be more
aduible, yet functionally no different."

Quote from the manual. I am just learning how to service our hubs.
