front sprocket nut torque

[Arbie]

Well I did it. Front sprocket nut came off pretty easy with a 24" breaker bar. Jammed a 1/4 in socket extension in the old chain to lock the wheel. ..piece of piss. I did use a dab of medium strength loctite in the end and torqued to 80nm which didnt actually feel like a lot. The nut does go on with the flat facing outwards doesn't it ? Im sure it must do as the sprocket would have play in it. Btw my tip for removing the old chain is dont dick about with a chain splitter....put an angle grinder horizontaly along a link....cut the bugger off in about 20 secs !!! Thanks for the advice though guys.
