|  VP wheels do you use loctite
I bought Vp DH pros for my LCC and DH pro 2 and Slw for my Xr. When putting them togeather is loctite used anywhere hubs, beadlocks, or weights. Just wondering I never used them and have a habit of putting loctite on all metal parts.

I've never used loctite on my VP DH's and have never had a problem. I occasionally check all of the beadlock and hub screws to be sure though.

You'll never need it, the screws are pretty self holding you don't even need to over tighten them just a nice twist and your done. They self tight themselves in a way you'll notice after a couple of runs when you remove them how the screws got tighter.

I always use loctite on the hubs of any wheels, since I know I won't be removing it too often. The beadlock ring screws I don't bother, but you should check them before the beginning of a day. They will loosen up over time, VP wheels included. Just the nature of metal in metal.
