Singlespeed & Fixed Gear "I still feel that variable gears are only for people over forty-five. Isn't it better to triumph by the strength of your muscles than by the artifice of a derailer? We are getting soft...As for me, give me a fixed gear!"-- Henri Desgrange (31 January 1865 - 16 August 1940)

Lotite and a BB lock ring. Use a brake.

The title of this thread is wildly inaccurate.

Anyway, don't use JB Weld unless you want it to be permanent. I say put some Loc-Tite on, tighten the **** out of it with the Rotafix method, a then thread on a BB lockring, also using Loc-Tite. If you run a brake, you'll have no problem at all. If you want to go brakeless, then don't.
