February 7, 201115 yr Hello all I've replaced the bearings in the Dog Bones etc - anyone know what the torque settings should be? Thanks Not so important. I would just make sure they are tight (Three white nuckles), I doubt you would get a torque wrench and socket on the bolts at the back of the frame.
February 7, 201115 yr Not so important. I would just make sure they are tight (Three white nuckles), I doubt you would get a torque wrench and socket on the bolts at the back of the frame. I usually just snug them up tight also. The torque setting are 13-18 ft lbs (18-25 Nm). As long as the Nyloc nuts are in good shape they should hold. A handy tool to make is to thin an old 13mm (1/2") spanner and then you can just lay the bike over and check those front fasteners now and then. The thin spanner fits in between the bolt head and the shock mount and allows you to hold the head of the bolt and tighten the outside nut. Jon
