The strongest is studlocker but that stuff isn't designed to be undone again....

I'd stick with medium strength threadlocker if I were you.

Oooooooooohhhh.................


Probably not.

I'd be looking to get that insert off the pedal on the bench somehow.

use the strongest threadlock to screw the insert with the pedal on back into the crank arm -leave it for a few days THEN try to undo the pedal  :daumenhoch:

Cheers Paul  :daumenhoch: Was thinking of flattening opposite sides of the insert and using a spanner on it but havent got the tools to do it!
