Bolts on peg hanger keep coming loose
I've had to tighten the bolts on one of my peg hangers twice in the last month or so, at one point I couldn't change gear properly because it came so loose. What's the best way of making these things stay put?
Cheers! |

Threadlock.
It dries on threads and should stop them vibrating loose  Jambo

As jambo said above, Blue loctite works a treat. Will stop them coming loose!

Yup, they are threadlocked in the factory when they are built
