Greetings,

Regarding the Sprocket Clamp Assembly, the nuts tend to loosen up a bit, even with the proper use of locking washers. My question is this: What's the best way to secure the nuts so that they don't keep coming loose?

I imagine you can use locktite, or double nut each bolt. What's the best solution, and why?

Hope to hear from you soon..wee.

Replace the cheese hardened junk hardware with good grade 5 bolts (grade 8 works too)
Double nut or locktite (BLUE!)if required.
None of mine ever had any issues coming loose after the first couple weeks.
I have found most of the hardware on these kits will just keep stretching and loosening until you replace the junk kit hardware with better grade stuff.
Then once everything takes a set, it will stay tight.
