Yes.

I have had 3 Centurion Ironman Carbons and 1 identical Carbon-R (better fork).

I switched the Carbon-R to a 1” threadless headset.
It developed a vibration. I tightened.
The vibration came back (on downhill braking). I tightened.
It got worse. I tightened more.
I was crushing the alloy lugs on the head tube.
Eventually they cracked enough so even my dumb ass could notice.
Dumpstered it.

I’ve had a Trek Composite 2100 and a Specialized Allez Epic. No issues.
I have an Exxon Graftek and a Giant Cadex CFR-1. No issues.
