bearing bolt trouble

so i was going out for i ride on my dx and i set it down 2 mount and i hear a metal sound ring so i figured out that it was the crank that needed 2 be tightened after i took the frame off the bearings so i tightened the crank and put the frame back on the bearings i mounted and went off about 1 yards then a loud very loud click sounded and i was so scared that i had broke my dx bearings becouse UDC dousnt have any but on futher investigation i saw that the one of the bolts that hold the frame to the bearings broke right in half i called UDC and a lady named …i think it was rebecca picked up the phone and told me they would send me a new bolt …PHew i was scarred abit there

has this happend 2 any one before rebecca said that she had never heard of it happining

Be sure not to overtighten the bearing bolts. Search around for posts on main cap bearing tightening. There are a couple that will tell you how to do it correctly. Almost all local bikeshops overtighten the main cap bearings on a unicycle and UDC is notorious for shipping them that way.
