i've got quite a cheap rear rim with a DMR single speed conversion kit on and sometimes when i accelerate hard it slips. my old free hub started to do this as well. would a good rim have an equally as strong free-hub, or is this more of a specific part that can be replaced/upgraded or is there a best way to avoid free-hub slip? cheers!!

A strip, clean-out and light regrease might sort the prob for a while..
