around here locktight is like $4 for the tiny tube and $7-8 for the small bottle
[EDIT added] purple is low strength and for use up to 6mm bolts that may need removal at some point.
Blue is medium and good for steel to aluminum and small steel to steel fasteners and can be used on steel to steel as large as you will find on a bike.
Red is high strength and only for steel to steel over about [EDIT] 15mm -25mm depending on the part and conditions the only real place for it on a bike would be on the freewheel threads if your making a cheap fixed gear.
If its something that doesn't need 'locking' some silicone gasket goo A.K.A. RTV will slow/stop a loose bolt from vibrating all the way out, as it sets up into a rubber. Its cheaper too-same price much bigger tube-and can be used for gaskets/sealing stuff
