No, but damn, my knees sure hurt after it popped! The wippermann should be strong enough, hopefully

Only you could manage this...

Apparently... Nobody else around here has seen it happen.....

I've never seen it happen around here either and that's after several summers of sitting in a bike shop with nothing to do. I've seen a lot of broken crap, but this is a new one.

I had this same thing happen with a xtr chain, a link turned completely to the side and the pin sheared through the chain... I've also sheared off the entire metal/bearings of headsets. I have pictures
