Mugen vs Flashpoint diff and shock fluid?
 
I’ve been using the Mugen fluids and like it, but it always seems out of stock for the weights I want.

What does everyone think about flashpoint diff and shock fluids? Are they comparable in the weights and Mugen quality? I’ve only used Mugen fluids and never had a problem other than availability. Looking to possibly make the change to Flashpoint since it’s easier to get in my area locally vs having to order Mugen fluids online. Online states “Flashpoint Mugen Seiki” are Mugen and Flashpoint the same now? Did Mugen buy Flashpoint? Curious 🧐

thank you!

The flashpoint oils are good as any other brand. I seem to remember hearing that Adam Drake owns or is partial owner of flashpoint at some point but am ultimately unsure.

As long as you kinda stick to one brand, no worries.

I've been using 1up. Can't help but chuckle that their shock oil comes in a sex lube bottle, and their traction compound comes in the same bottle as "vitality" vitamins. Can't make this $#/t up.
