Chamois lubricants--what's "safe" & where?

[VeloVT]

I just looked online for the ingredient list of the Chamois Butt's you guys are swearing by and I can't use it.....any other options? Has to be chemical and glycerin free.

Check out the ingredients for Assos chamois cream and Body Glide (though these both likely have some vegetable glycerin-like ingredients). Also, there are more and more chamois creams becoming available in the states (I'm assuming you're in the states?)... surf around sites like World Cycling Productions, etc, to see what they're carrying -- and do a google search for "chamois cream." A few products I've seen online but don't know anything about include creams by Ozon, Quoleum and Brave Soldier...

Other than that, how about pure cocoa butter, or some of the thicker cocoa butter cremes you can get in the drugstore (like Palmer's)?

Personally I am surprised that there are so many fans of KY jelly and Astroglide for this purpose -- I tried this once or twice and for me, once you start sweating this type of lube disintegrates almost immediately...

Edit: I read somewhere that Noxema used to be a common chamois lube as well...
