Ok, so I went to skid to a halt the other day and the backward pressure on the rear sprocket caused it to slip, disconcertingly, about an inch.
The bike was due a minor service at Evans, free mind, and I mentioned it. They were supposed to Loctite it, which I've no doubt they did, but the same thing happened today.
So, how do you get that sprocket to stick like a motherfucker to the rear hub, so I don't have to worry about this heart stopping event happening again?
