Hi folks,

Just got my shock back from Mojo and just wondered if there are any specific torque settings etc. for tightening it all back up when I drop it back into my Five? Just worried about overtightening and affecting the bushes.

Any help / advice welcome!

Cheers..

There probably are torque specs, don’t think Orange have ever bothered with them though. You are only tightening onto the reducers, so the bushes are unaffected

Ta, I should have checked their website first though – according to their FAQ it looks like 10Nm with Loctite threadlock for good measure. Needless to say I don’t have any…

Just tighten a bit less than too tight

Up til it shears and back it off 1/4 turn 😉

I do mine just by feel. Just use a bit of common sense

Some sage advice there – feel bad enough asking because it’s a Five and worse still it had BMX-style 26″ wheels.. 😉

Now where to find some Loctite threadlock over the counter..! Definitely needed?

Ive greased the threads on mine. 3 years no issues

Loctite is always available from your local, friendly, Halfords…. or free from my work when it’s going out of date 🙂
