Lock tight for disc break?

[The Voyager]

Pulled front end apart tonight. Yoke. Forks. Disc and break. Whilst taking the disc off the wheel I noticed all 5 nuts seemed to have a lock tight on them. Or so I thought. Each nut give a snap before coming loose. There was no edging. Just so I know when putting back, does the disc require lock tight? As well do any other important parts require this?

Hi, l would suggest you get yourself a workshop manual for the bike, it's easy enough to strip down a bike, putting it back correctly is critical. The bolts in question may or may not require lock tight one things for sure they need to be torqued up correctly, don't be guessing that's plain dangerous.

As above you need to torque safety critical bolts.

Brake discs usually have "stud/thread lock" on them. be careful how much you use, too much and you will struggle to get the bolts out next time.

The bolts need to be degreased for the thread lock to work.

Also make sure the back surface of the disc and the wheel are absolutely clean. If there is any dirt or other debrison there the disc will not run true and you will get vibration when braking.

All this info will be in the manual

Silly old me. I have a manual and a torque wrench. Will get reading, just caught in a flurry of worry.

I tend to use the blue loctite for these as it's non hardening......so you can get the b*ggers off next time.....
