10cc? 25cc? What do these mean

[RangerCraft1]

On the cubicle.us , the silicon lubes say a number, followed by cc. What does this mean? I've looked everywhere and can't find the answer.

How does this affect the cube when lubed?

It doesn't. CC is just a measure of volume (1 CC = 1 mL)

It basically just means how much lube there is.

What you're thinking of is the weight. Cubicle lube goes from Weight 1 to Weight 5, weight 5 being the heaviest and weight 1 being the lightest. Typically you want to put light lube like weight 1 or 2 on the pieces, and heavy lube like weight 4 or 5 in the core. Most people use a different brand of lube called traxxas though which is a lot cheaper if you buy it off a non-cube store, because you get enough to lube like 50 cubes for about 6 bucks, and it works well, you just need a light lube to go with it for the pieces.

Ok, that makes sense now.
