    Fitting a "new" front brake lever. Old one was secured by locking nut and
    bolt. Do I need to get a new locking nut or will threadlock do? Some of you
    may consider this a gay question, but I wouldn't be that happy if it fell off
    the bike.

    The old locknut shouldn't pose a problem, but a TINY amount of Loc-Tite on
    the nut after the bolt is pushed through the perch and lever will ease your
    mind.
