Sprocket bolt threadlock

[geoffmm]

Easy question chaps and ladies.

I will be changing the rear sprocket on my R1 and assume that i should use some sort of thread sealant when re torquing the nuts back up,

question is,

Which is the best one to use?

[eddie]

Loctite (or similar), threadlock or nutlock will do, just make sure the threads are clean (we use a solvent spray at work to clean the threads first)

I use this one on the bike

You need loctite BLUE.

You should know that loctite red is permanant and so you'll end up breaking the studs when you try to take the nuts off next time. Ask Karla about it's use on a front wheel

Loctite blue is what i got and it seems to be doing the job.

thanks for all your advice guys and gals.

Any brand of threadlock will do but be carefully as loctite do a bearing compound n you'll never get it undone again think it's the yellow one go for the blue stuff
