[QUOTE="oexing, post: 103302, member: 1493"] Someone asked about use of Loctite on the sprocket fit, but no experience on this so far? I am a big supporter of Loctite but cannot tell if this application may be great. But then, in case of a loose fit I´d try this anyway - after a good degrease and 638 on all faces . Either this works - great - or it does not . You will find out after some mileage and this "bodge" would not do any harm while trying. If Loctite shows to be suitable you will some day want to have a look into the gearbox eventually. Now you will have to deal with high strength Loctite. So before using the Loctite method the question is: Can you get a good puller onto the sprocket for extracting it ?? I cannot tell, not my type of bike. Just thinking . . . But then, a torch for heating the sprocket to 300 degrees C would do and the sprocket would be scrap anyway due to poor fit. Vic [/QUOTE]
