You could read the whole thread here (http://forum.ebaumsworld.com/showthread.php?t=84395) but here's what basically happened.
3, 4 miles out and I feel something wobbling under my feet, I look down and the pedal says "peace out nigga!" and the ***** falls off! :banghead:

But of course, because of my handicapped condition of being very good physically with my body, after a few hundred hours, I owned that ***** back in it's place.

your bikes a piece of ****, and the threads on the bolt are after grinding the **** out of the threads in the hole.
So when you try and screw the crank back onto the bike, your just mashin it up worse and that ****er is goin to keep fallin off.
:bow:
I just got back and my worst nightmares came back again, it started wobbling... :eek: I was already like 5 miles out, but this time I knew what the problem was, all I could do was stop whenever it started wobbling real bad, and tighten the nut with my keys :shuffle: It was torture trying to get back, I was heading to the bike shop to see if they can do anything about it, and when I finally reached there it was closed :thud: and now I'm finally home, glad that nightmare is over. I'm going to get the torch and melt the ****er until it's a puddle of molten steel. :shout:
I didn't know what threads were until my father told me the threads were wearing out and I asked "the spiraly thing?"
I got that bike because it was cheap, and looked cool, I was a newbie, I still am and I'm lost as to what to get. I want a Full Suspension MTB that will last me a pretty long time. One that isn't too heavy, because this Honda weighed a ton, and it was horrifying riding against the wind, I have had joggers infront of me while I'm peddaling my ass off.
I'm 5'6 160-170lbs, had to cut my old seat down shorter because I'm kinda short lol.
My price range is 200-300$ any help would be nice, thanks in advance.
I forgot to add, I ride in the city and along shores, I jump up and down curbs alot, these curbs can be up to 7 inches? Don't know if this matters
