Cranks Loosening

Although not specified I will assume this setup is the cotterless or
square taper type. It would also be helpful to know if the cranks are
aluminum or steel. The bolt is metric and a 14mm socket will fit it. If
you just got the unicycle the crank is loosening from initial riding. If
not new, then the crank was loose for some time and has worn or rounded
the crank/axle interface and probably cannot be re-tightened properly.
If I put on new cranks I like to ride 100 meters and then re-tighten.
Ride another 100 meters and re-tighten. Then ride a few miles and
re-tighten.
