Moderator drewpy Posted February 5, 2009 Moderator Share Posted February 5, 2009 keeping the flat track project going I've drilled, thread locked and wired my disk onto the rear wheel. Are these tensioned enough. I did pull on them hard and seeing as I used thread lock as well thought it should pass an MOT inspection!! what do you think?

Your wire work looks good enough for me BUT ---- I prefer locking washers which can be made at the correct radius and hole centres to pick up on two adjacent bolts ( I.E. three washers required) When making them alow each end to overlapp the extremities of the bolt hexagons in order that they may be bent up and over an appropriate flat The big advantage of this is that the bolt heads don't need to be drilled and the washers can be carefully used again (and again) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume its not like the original xs disk locking method!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
