That’s bizarre. When you say the cup split was it a crack between the frame insert (threaded or pressfit?) and the bearing housing (sheered off at BB?) or was it the whole assemble opening up?
In terms of warranty, were you dealing directly with CaneCreek or an online store or a shop?
Unless there’s a bunch of superfluous machining, that sounds like a QC/QA issue with the cup itself rather than an issue with the system. I mean, it’s a bottom bracket. All that’s really fancy about it is the cool SKF bearing.
BBs still look to be available for purchase.
