Hello everyone,

I have been using Speedplay Zero with Ebay TI axles since 2014.

A few months ago, right pedal body unscrews from axle while I'm pedaling. Only the right one.

Has anyone had the same problem? And how did you solve it?

Thanks a lot,
Wilson from Portugal.

They should have loctite on the threads.

Loctite can be a curse because the little screw may break when you remove it for maintenance. Heat will break down the compound. I would recommend a good size soldering iron. Hold the tip on the head of the bolt and with enough time, the compound should allow the bolt to come loose. Do this before you strip the head.
