All,
I'm helping a friend replace a Campy BB with a FSA Italian thread BB
(70x108) into his frame. The bb will be installed into an aluminum bb
shell (sp?). In terms of preping the FSA bb, I understand that:
1) Place a threadlocker/Loctite type substance on the threads of the
BB
2) Install torque the BB into the frame's BB shell
3) Allow the threadlocker/Loctite substance to sufficiently 'activate'
Is this correct ? How long should I wait for the Loctite substance to
do it's thing ? There are several different versions of Loctite, is
there a certain version specific for this type of application ?
Thanks again,
Ian in SD
