Had that happen one time — when going uphill……it was disastrous.
The first generation Campagnolo Super Record titanium bottom bracket axle was hollow with pedals arms secured with bolts screwed into the threaded axle ends, exactly like previous generations of steel based axles. Laurent Fignon learned the (very) hard way as seen in the video, that the hollow titanium axles unfortunately were liable to break under strain. For safety reasons the second generation of the Super Record axles were instead solid with threadded studs in the ends, pedal arms now being secured with nuts rather than bolts.
Irrespective of this knowledge, I have mounted the 1st Gen hollow titanium axle on one of my bikes ……. Crazy? Not really, given my lack of strength and my relatively low (body) weight, it should be perfectly safe 😁
