Crank Questions
 
I forgot, do I Locktite the crank bolts or just grease them? Also, is there any general torque spec for the BB cups. I am putting in a used, but good shape, BB and for the life of me cant find any torque specs for the cups. Any info is greatly appreciated!!

Grease the bolts. Torque them to between 20 and 35 ft-lb depending on the manufacturerer. (Raceface calls for the higher torque level)
