locking bolts?

is it possible to get nuts and bolts that you would need a specail tool to undo? (just like locking wheel nuts for cars~)


i remember badger asking a simerler question a while back. but he was after one for his can, im just after some 10mm by about 60mm bolts, that cant be undone by anyone?

Pad lock?

There is a substance that you can apply to bolts I think that can lock things up so that they don't come apart unless with a lot of force (no its not superglue). Guess that'll be no good?

do you mean "locktight"?

i think thats more so bolts dont come undone on their own

I considered something like this for my trackbike. I often turn up at the circuit the night before, or on a two day meeting stay overnight, and the bike although padlocked to the trailer is out in the open on the back of the camper. It would be all to easy for someone to unbolt the exhaust (1 bolt=£500) the calipers (four allen bolts, £1,200) master cylinder (two small bolts= £200) or god forbid with a bit of time the entire front end...£3,000 plus.

In the end you just have to be careful where you park up and hope for the best. Fortunately paddock crime is fairly low.

yeah, but £20 worth of bolts could stop this, maybe

im probably just being a bit paronoid, but surprised cans dont get knicked more often

You are so right, I'm going to ring them later and find out what the cost is....
