1000km is not that much, in America that's only about 621 miles, I do that in 1 1/2 months of riding and I don't ride as much as others who could easily see that in a month. There may be something missing he hasn't told us, but if indeed it did just snap then he should run not walk back to the LBS for an adjustment under warranty without the games being played...if games are being played.
