Default allen screws and torque

Offhand, if the bolt was loose AFTER applying maximum torque, you've
probably stripped the aluminum threads in the brake and shifter body.

Hint: Stay away from the maximum torque.


Yeah, I thought so too. After doing them the maximum torque But they aren't loose! And it isn't threads into the aluminium frame. It is a clamp. This isn't to say it couldn't have been damaged just as well.
