I remember Grant writing that cassettes cranked down to 30 N-m is how
Yes, of course! Makes total sense. Thanks.

Thanks Bill. Your suggestion in #3 is precisely what I have done.
I've removed the lockring many times and reinstalled, but never with a

the consensus that the hanger (also cast into the dropout) is going to be
stronger still, and I wouldn't
I have three thoughts on this:
1. The recommended torque rating for a cassette lockring is typically 40
N-m. For those who don't know what that means, that is solidly in the
"Really freaking tight" regime. Like as tight as crank bolts. In my
opinion, that torque rating for a cassette
