2021 Silicone Spinner Neck Bolt Failure.
2021 Silicone Spinner Neck Bolt Failure.
The neck bolt threaded into a 1/4" nut that was tack welded in two places to the back of the spine. I would've expected a drilled and threaded steel plate securely welded to the back of the spine. The new Silicone Spinner skeletons are from China, no doubt the same ones used in the TPE Spinners. Between the Poor quality of the finger wires and the neck bolt failure, I am less than pleased.

1/4" is pretty small for a decent weld, and this is the result
If you have access to a welder then there is a chance to repair but would suggest 3/8" nut (and hook)
If not, then a tersely worded email to the vendor

Maybe it was a 3/8ths nut, I just guessed. Still, only a zap zap top and bottom, holding it to the rod/spine? Like an after thought.seagull wrote:Major Crap!
