Keeps coming loose while riding . I am constantly re tightening the two bolts despite using Loctite. Anyone else had this problem and have a solution ?

I have the Suntour Rad sells and not had any issues at 600 miles. What 2 bolts are you having issues with? Loctite has a red version that really holds.

Tony

Thanks for the reply vudude. It's the two chrome hex bolts that stop it pivoting (one each side ) I have tried the the blue lock tight.  Maybe I should get me some red.

I think you are talking about the connection at the top of the Suntour where it grabs the 2 rails under the seat. You have to make the 2 rails match the Suntour. I used a vise. In my case the 2 rails needed to be squeezed together. Now it should work without any Loctite.

I just installed a 400MM Suntour seat post. Like it! :) :)
