. . . for your rotor bolts?

I ideally wanted some all purpose for the entire bike. I also have 6 bolt centerlock adapters that could do with some!

Thanks!

    243 (and the equivalent on in the stick form iirc 248?)

    I just use any.
    - Std tube of red loctite usally does the job.
    - Also got some thicker 'colourless' stuff thats quite good too.

    That said, my rotors have paired 'washers' that prevent the trianglar headed bolts coming out.

    Another vote for 243. It is pricey - for a one off job get a 10ml bottle from an engineering supplier. Should be about a fiver.
