Hang on... slack or tight, that pinch bolt can not have pulled off that spline, if the bolt in the clamp was still in place... IF FITTED CORRECTLY...
I understand that if the clamp was fitted correctly, then the bolt passes through the recess between the two sets of splines making it impossible for the clamp to pull off with the bolt in place, either loose or tight.
In my opinion, the clamp wasn't pushed on far enough, so the bolt could then be inserted in the right place?
Assembly error.
