best thread lockers for "removable" parts?

I just got some blue 242 loctite to use on my (new) passenger pegs. One of them fell off (probably on the highway) and I didn't notice until I got home :<

You guys think this will be fine? I may use it on my replaced bar end bolts since I never got around to adding loctite and I really don't want to deal with the hell that is red loctite ever again.

I know woodcraft & Bohemian racing advise the use of blue loctite on the bolts. Blue loctite can be disassembled with just tools (unlike red which requires heat), so blue loctite will work just fine!

Sounds like you got just the right stuff. Just be sure to torque it right, Threadloc is supposed to keep it from vibrating out, not hold it tight!
