I've broken a SRAM PC-951 with less than 100mi on it. Same break. I had used the PowerLink and had no reinserted pins.

I was going up the steepest part of a hill that averages 10%. Guess 200# = too much for SRAM.

My LBS gave me a new one no questions. SRAM will stand behind it, but they shouldn't break.
