I have a borrowed semcycle XL with the same problem. A few suggestings:
1) carry a wrench where ever you go.
2) replace the nut (this seems to help for a while)
3) super glue the nut. (as has been suggested before on this group)
In talking to Tom Miller, he says that if everything is right that the
nut should not loosen. However he didn't give any suggestions other
than tighten as tight as you can.
Andy C. ... I think you said that you recomend the semcycle to new
riders. Do they have any problems? Is the Non XL any better?
I'm looking for a good 24" uni for racing. What's the best out there?
Why? John Foss said that he hase one uni for racing but did not say
what kind (custom built maybe?)
