Aha, different thread (pun intended). Thanks!
"Using higher strength thread lock isn't going to help if you're not degreasing the threads properly in the first place. As the threads are anodised aluminium, you should probably be using primer 7471 before applying Loctite. If all else fails, you could always ask Rotor to redesign their crank/spider interface to something which doesn't look like the primary design goal was to have the spider push off the crank whenever pedalling torque is applied."

£71 a fucking bottle?!
Or I could get the aerosol... a snip at >£500!!!!
hippy
@mdcc_tester I think you may have answered this already but can you think of anything to help the Rotor cranks lockring stay put? Using their specified variety of loctite and their torque spec. isn't enough it seems. I think I questioned upping the strength of the loctite but you said it wasn't any stronger, maybe? Can't find the post now though and I need to sort it again.
