The headstem on my single speed is really giving me the sh!ts. It is
constantly coming loose. I'm sure the terminology I'm going to use is
wrong so here's a picture for reference.

There's a top locknut and a washer and the bottom locknut. The top one
is forever coming loose after 10-20 mins of riding. I can tighten it up
by hand and it will be good for another 20 mins, but it's really
annoying. If I tighten it up with a shifter, it still happens. If I
clamp the lower locknut in place and tighten the top one as much as
possible, then they both work loose. Have I mentioned this is giving me
the sh!ts. Anyone with any ideas???
