Did you have SPC rear arm? Mine snapped too. I see the defect with them if this was SPC. Worried if this was SPL.

SPC threads arm first and then bends the arm. The threads in place where arm bends are fatigued and allows arm to sheer off. If your arm was SPC then I think it's an arm design if not I will be wanting to see arm and type of breakage. Very interested to see that happened? Was it at threaded section. Did you have threaded section lock nut way out towards the end?
