I'm dealing with a similiar situation as frankenbike. My son's old HOO KOO E KOO had a bolt come loose from the granny gear chain ring. He was pedalling when it came out and he rammed it into the stay right where it meets the seat tube. What a mess. I'm sorry, I should have taken pictures to share with everyone. I just started to reassemble the chain wheel. I'm going to try 50-60 in-lbs and use loctite as recommended by neil0502. Thanks for this thread frankenbike, it was great timing for me.
