My simple Front Sprocket Fix

[packie]

yep. new nut, washer and sprocket.


My guess is that the dimensions of the nut/shaft are wrong (design flaw) so that the nut is just slightly too big and when hot (expanded) can jump threads

Now you know why I did my simple fix. Thats serious sh!t, but i'm not surprised. When I torqued my new nut up...I found that at about 60nms it felt like the nut was going to strip or jump it's threads as you put it. I went as far as I could go, but I don't trust their nuts one bit....not with my life, anyway. I used stronger wire but might do a proper job and put a "stopper" on the end of the shaft like "unfazed" did.
