Yeah, I'm completely out of that copper antiseize. What's a good alternative I could use/find locally? Would Phil Wood work? Anything easy to find at a hardware store or bike shop?

Don't use grease--you need antiseize for this (though grease is better than nothing). Any automotive parts store will have anti-seize available. Sometimes they even have it in the little tubes so you don't have to buy a whole bottle.

RighteousBMX:
I've used Phil Wood on my Twombolts for years no, no problems here.

14thStbikes:
A pep boys/autozone type store will have copper antisieze for sure. They generally have little packets of it by the parts counter.

The Outsider:
Just picked a jar of anti seize up from the local auto parts store. Fairly cheap too. Not sure why I thought this stuff was so specialized/rare. Thanks BG, you helped me learn something new today and hopefully avoid this hassle in the future.

this is the trick
bunnyhop with your other foot forward
