Glad that Kuah finally got a post up here. He wasn't too happy when I didn't give him a chance to resolve the issue before, so I didn't post up anything this time 
Turns out I was the "lucky" one who managed to sheer his adjuster... damn CA roads!! It's apparently only the possibility of 5 sets of arms, and yes, it's the revised adjusters with the allen key clamp. At first Kuah thought that clamp might have hit the top of the fender well when I went over a bump. Turns out my initial thought was right and the adjuster was too thin...
At any rate, from the beginning I didn't want anyone to have something happen, esp when going 70mph or something. I was lucky that I was slowing down, otherwise I can't imagine what could have happened. The problem has been figured out and is being taken care of, and everyone is SAFE!!
Now I just have to wait a couple weeks for my arms to come back and then find time to re-install them during wedding season (everyone else's it seems)....
