That's pretty much what happened the first time I used my SQR.
Interesting, I've put some heavy loads in mine without issue in that respect. Probs > 10kg.
If you followed my link, you'll see that mine had nowhere near 10kg on it, and hadn't for months. It probably never carried more than 10 kg (when I was bringing my laptop, wash bag and a change of clothing, the lock stayed at work). Still, it's not an unexpected failure after 20,000km (and I am slow, that's probably more than 1000 hours).
Edit: I misread @Fab Foodie's post! I thought "Probs > 10kg" meant "problems when greater than 10kg". Now I see that he has probably loaded more than 10kg onto the SQR. Soz.
My attitude would be very different if it happened when it was new.
