When you assemble your bike you always prepare the threads and other surfaces with grease, this makes the assembly easier and protects the threads from corrosion and also usually allows you to be able to unscrew the component at a later date, so always use a grease when building up your bike, but what about Carbon? What Grease can I use for carbon bikes?

Sam, I have heard that you have to use a compound made for that but other experts say grease is fine. My experience with fiberglass and epoxy is that it absorbs moisture, so I would be a bit concerned.
