Maybe with JB weld, but not red loctite. My beater fixed has a "Suicide" hub put together with red loctite and a BB lockring and I trust it for skidding and skipping more than the Formula hub on my good bike. Still have both brakes on both bikes though.
Hub in question;
Old Formula freewheel hub with a fixed cog and BB lockring red loctited and rotafixed on. Solid as hell and regularly beaten on for over a year now. No slippage or signs of any. This is also a "free" fixed gear, meaning it put it together outta junk i had lieing around in my garage.
