Mission Prodigy Trials. Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 Hello, I have built up a 2008 Gu-st and my bottom bracket keep's coming loose and wobling on the frame and I keep having to tighten it so now I am wondering what I could use on the Thread's to keep them secure . ? * Loctite .?* Rubber plumming tape .? * Grease .? Thank you . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottTrials Posted October 16, 2009 Report Share Posted October 16, 2009 before you do any of that crap, is your crank, freewheel rubbing on the bb shell. I found out when I had this problem that I needed a longer bb axle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigjames Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 As has been said, check everything clears, clean both the threads on the frame and the BB, get a torque wrench and tighten it up to the correct setting. You shouldn't need to put anything on a bottom bracket, maybe a small amount of grease to stop them seizing in there solid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
