I broke my Spohn TQ Arm!!!
After a season of racing up here and the little bit I did around PCB the TQ arm decided to give up. Has anyone else ever seen this happen to a Spohn? Here are some pics:

It's a race part, nothing lasts forever. No different then purchasing a crank, pistons etc...you can break those in one race.
On a side note, it's an easy repair. Probably cost ~40.00 to either reweld the broken piece or cut off the old one and have them send you a new replacement part that can easily be welded back on.
They may be willing to repair it, though it would be probably be less expensive to have it repaired locally vs. shipping costs back and forth.
First and formost, I would probably call them and let them know you had a problems with it so they can assist you with your issue. I'm sure they won't leave you hanging and not be willing to at least repair it for you.
Good luck,
Steve

Call or email Spohn. I bet they would be willing to help you get it fixed, albeit maybe not free if it's got some miles on it.
I also bet the bolts have loosen up on you. The moser setup is notorious for that.
