not sure whats going on with this old thread but I missed it first time round.
Ive got the spacers on mine as the alloys wont fit the earlier hubs.
got the nuts on with locktite but when I re-torque them after 100 miles will this not fook up the locktite?

will I not just end up in a never ending cycle of re-tightening and loctiting every 100 miles then?

awkward lol
yeah they have loctite on , but if re tighten them it will break the bond? and they will need relocktighting-take em off to do that and cycle begins again lol.
I will do it though! safety first!
