Time RXS Carbon problem

[Henry]

Hi

The right pedal body unscrewed itself from the inboard bearing!
Lucky it was only a training spin and I was in the saddle!
The pedal body remained on my show with the axel protuding from the
crank.
The pedals are about 2 or 3 years old.

Anybody out there had a similar problem?

Threads seem undamaged and screw up fine.
Not sure what tools to use to tighten sufficiently.
Any idea what kind of torque is recommended?
Threadlock OK?

Can't find any service documentation for these pedals.

Thanks John,

Any idea about Time distributors for Rep. of Ireland?
(Nothing listed on your site.)
