Default Carlube triple r oil, any good?

As title is this any good? Need to get a tub to top up my oil abit.

If its no good then I'll have to get something else.

He's not asking that tho mate.. He just wants to know if it will be ok.. Which is yes.... I'd top my Cossie up with it.. But I only use Titan pro S. as a rule.

There's nothing wrong with carlube oils, as already said just make sure you get right grade.
