@hippy a I have ever done to my OneUp is top up air pressure and spray the side of it with silicone shine then move it up and down a few times.
Give that a try first.

Similar to fork stanchions you might wanna make an effort to keep the shiny part clean ish, i.e. wipe it after every ride.

Need to find out how to top up the pressure. Saddle off? Do Not Want.

Reminds me, I need to drop my fork pressure back again now it's not loaded up.

Yeah, the moving bits are cleaned normally. This only happened after yesterday's ride in the wet.

Is there a non-MucOff equivalent of Silicone Shine? ie. something I could get at Halfords that does the same thing for 30% the price?

Yeah, Halfords will have some kind of silicon lube spray for various rubber car parts.

Yes, you do need to take the saddle off but I don't have to do it that frequently and it really is no big deal.

We don't have Halfords here but I am sure Supercheap Auto would have something similar.
