Singlespeed & Fixed Gear - Which color loctite?

I have a wheel that does not have enough room for my cog and a lock ring. I remember someone saying that one of the loctite's will work good enough if I don't skid. Which color is the strongest?

red

I think someone on this forum referred to this as a "bumbike fixie setup".
Not very safe even without attempts to skid.

get a real fixed hub (i.e.-track or what ever the hell you want to call it) as soon as you can. My 2 friggin cents.

Epoxy it on, when the cog wears down, by a proper hub. Or try heating the epoxy to replace the cog.

What fun is it riding a fixie if you can't skid because you are afraid your cog will loosen?

any color. Even none if youre not abusive.

I use blue.

get a real hub.

Good luck. Let us know if you die.

Blue or you'll probably never get it off down the road. Crank it on there nice and tight, then step on the pedals really hard, then ride it around for a while. Wait a day or two for it to fully cure. You will probably have a hard time ever getting off after that. Then go ride but make sure you have a front brake just in case.

Yeah, um... I would stay far away from this setup if I were you. I used the red stuff (the strongest) and a bb lockring. Nevertheless, it managed to come a bit loose and strip all of the threads off of my hub, while riding brakeless in traffic.

Time for a track hub.

it would definitely be a "bumbike fixie setup" made entirely by adding a cog to a bunch of scrapped abandon bike parts. I'm going to leave the brakes on and only use it to go short distances slowly in the winter. I just want a crapmobile that I can leave outside that won't get jacked. if I can't get the cog off, it's OK. it's a cheapie from ebay.

If you are ok with it never coming off try PC7, just glop it all over.

i say 6018, 3/32 at low amperage, straight polarity.

I would use the strongest loctite (blue) and make sure you run a brake.

In giving that advice, I'd like to say that I've never done it.

run a brake. blue locktite.

or you could try this technique:

there's a dicussion about it over at fixedgeargallery.com (http://www.fixedgeargallery.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=383). Some guy says he rides it brakeless without a lockring. i think he might have a deathwish.

You have also never used red loctite apparently.
Blue is temporary, red is heavy duty.

There seems to be a debate over blue or red being the strongest...
The offical website seems to show red is permanent http://www.loctite.com/int_henkel/loctite_us/index.cfm?&pageid=19&layout=3

I like to have a bunch of extra wheels, and old threaded hubs are practically given away these days- so to hell with everyone else- loctite does work- even if you skid once in awhile. I've thousands of miles on my old Campy Record hubs without a hint of a problem... and how many people have blown out their threads on cheapo track hubs?
