I accidentally trashed the locknut on my Durablue eliminator axle (Raptor) putting in a real set screw. I am now wondering what my alternatives are for fixing it. How about the antifade brakehub/locknuts? or am I better off sticking with the durablue style locknight and fighting with it to keep it tight?

For those with the lonestar axles, how well do they stay tight? My durablue loosens up after only a couple of rides, even when loctited.

thanks for the info.

I haven't had to tighten my Lonestart locknut up since the day I put it on. It tightens up, then you have 1 or 2 allen head bolts that you tighten down causing it to squeeze against the threads. It would be hard for it to back off.
