My rear suspension is twittering like a baby bird at the moment. Is there a quick fix, spray on, wipe off lube I can use to make the noise go away or am I needing to pull it all apart, grease and reassemble?

I hope it's the former, as I'm lazy. Wouldn't have bought an ebike if I liked hard work, would I? Any recommendations on products?

I use this on the fork, shock and dropper post sliders. Apply a little, rub it around, compress the fork/shock a few times and wipe off excess with a microfiber cloth.

Are all your posts pointless or just this one?

Nah, I'm just mocking you personally. I have nothing but contempt for lazy no-loads who are incapable of taking care of their most basic needs. To offer assistance would merely be enabling your weakness. Next time before you start spouting about your laziness and incompetence, you'll show a little humility before you ask grown-ups to waste their time on you.
 
Well, after a few days away from the playground, what I was essentially after is a carbon safe penetrating lube that I can squirt on the suspension linkages and then wipe off the excess. Thought someone may know of something along those lines, rather than than just trying to be forum twat of the year...

I am perfectly capable of stripping a bike down and rebuilding it, I'd just rather save some time that's possible.
 
Ah yes, the mythical “penetrates, lubricates, doesn’t attract dirt, wipes off clean, and also fixes my life in 30 seconds” fluid.
