Default Rear Hubs

Anyone having problems with their stock hubs/axle nuts staying tight on the Durablue axle? Common problem or just me?

Thanks all.

Steve

My Durablue does the same thing. I covered it with Lock-Tite a couple weeks ago and haven't had a problem since. I guess its kinda monkey, but the lock-nut that comes with it doesn't seem to work. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

Lock tite is your friend I think its kinda monkey not to use it. Think of it as an insurance policy.

Yah, I went to their corp office to bith at them. My axle only came with one hub nut and the axle nut wasn't even threaded where you put the pinch bolt. I tapped the axle nut myself but could not find a 35mm (whatever it is) hub nut anywhere.

The owner was there but hid in his office.
