  1. As I was out enjoying a sunny day on my muni, I noticed an unusual sound
    coming from my uni. I discovered that the "pinch bolt" on the left
    side had come loose. I tightened it, and was off, only to find that 30
    minutes later, it was loose again.

    Has anyone had this experience, and what did you do to fix it.

    it, leave it for an hour or so and it will hold up for weeks.

  4. Lubricate the bolt then tighten it as much as you can.

    In theory, there is no difference between practice and theory, in
    practice, there is.

  6. if you jsut tighten it it will just come loose again, you really need to
    put something liek locktight on it to make sure it will stay in place
    nad not come loose at all.
