so my boardtracker ended up being alot faster than i anticipated! the problem is, everytime i ride it my rear hub loosens up, causing the rear wheel to wobble and vibrate. does anyone else get this problem? is there a different wheel or bigger hub i can switch to?

I have the same problem...

a. My guess is to re-adjust hub/axel, (may as well regrease bearings and axel) and then
b. use BLUE Locktite on bolts.
c. (make sure not to overtighten cones/ or inner bolts when tightening outer bolts)

Looking forward to more seasoned MBers posts to confirm? my guess.

Good Luck! :)

Is it a coaster brake hub ? If so , check your dust cover on the brake side. Make sure its not rubbing or catching on the sprocket and loosening up your cone nut.

Do you have cone wrenches ? Its almost impossible to properly adjust the cone nuts with out them. I took an old 15mm box end wrench and ground it down to use on the cones.
