You'll be able to get that undone again. Don't worry about it. Threadlock is purely that: locks it, stops it working loose. But it doesn't bond it permanently.

Let's say you bang that cog up to 100Nm. To unwind it at the pedal end with 48x16 gearing like you young whippersnappers use you'll have to push and pull 900N (90kg) through each pedal or a straight stomp of 180kg through one leg if you were to just stand on one pedal. Got legs?

The info I read said that with loctite red, it requires heat to remove (like a lot of heat).

I'm aware that the force from stopping probably isn't enough to undo the cog if it is tight enough, it's more about me having piece of mind that I won't die while doing a monster whipskid
