I discovered that my FSA stem had crushed the top of my carbon RockShox SID WC last week. And entirely by chance discovered this today.
I particularly liked this passage: Note that on components like a stem, the torque value printed on the part is the torque that the bolt and threads can withstand, not what the part being clamped underneath can withstand. Parts should only ever be torqued to the minimum amount of force that is necessary to keep the part from moving.
