Having some problems with my front hub.

Last week i noticed some play when wobbling the wheel side to side, presumed the bearings had died, despite tightening the 'cones' (cartridge bearing system) there was no improvement.

Put new bearings in the hub and all was well.

However, after 30 miles today the wheel's loose again.

Any ideas what the problem could be? Is it time for a new wheel?

cheers
