Rear wheel/sprocket locking tabs
« on: October 30, 2014, 01:28:39 PM »
 I'm building a set of wheels and I'm missing the locking tabs that go on the sprocket cover plate and hold the nuts in place.
 Could I use lock washers and/or blue LocTite instead?

I have on several bikes that came with those and the rotors/rims/sprockets are still on.  ;)

Is there anything more fun than riding? They are between your legs and are quiet when you turn them off.

Or NyLocks. As long so you use a supplemental locking system, you'll be fine.

Or outer bolt threads whipped by chains at large when broken,  work as a thread lock. :-)
