Molybdenum Disulphide grease is frequently sold at the auto parts store as CV Joint or CV Axle grease.

The only places I can think of this grease being used in the bicycle world is the grease specified by Haberstock Mobility for lubrication of their Schlumpf drive 2 speed epicyclic crankset.

The other place is the "special" Shimano grease for Shimano roller brakes. Though, I can't say for certain if the special Shimano approved super-secret-squirrel formula really is plain ol' Mos2 grease or not, it sure looks & feels the part.
