1.  How can 'n snapped derailleur crack a frame?

2.  I have done just over 2000km with my 11sp record and all is good.

maybe the hanger went into the spokes and jammed against the rear stay?

nope saw it myself at the lbs.. The pin in the RD popped out and the cage swung round and hit the rear stay.. a nasty sight.. Was a nice SL2 (world champ colours)

Normally humans are the root of all problems, it wont just break on its own. If it went into the spokes, it was not set up correctly (mechanic) or crosschained too much (rider).

This sh*t does happen even with Campag (even though i hate to say it). You remember the set i bought from you, the front mech snapped the cage when i dropped the chain off the big ring during the test ride after mounting the group set. So now i'm still riding with my old Chorus front mech.
