Nuts. And bolts are designed for the application
nylon lock nuts are fantastic in the design use
Friction nuts as well and will not vibrate loose
Those cheap lock nuts work good to on frames
If your frame vibrates to those frequencies
You have more serious issues
But having secure nuts and bolts are the utmost importance
Cool video
Thanks

I haven't used them so I can't report on how well they work but in that video, they didn't have much pressure on that jam-nut demonstration. If you want a jam-nut to work, you gotta have some pressure on it. I never had one work loose.
