Huh. Still a bit weird that you wouldn't feel it starting to come off first... but hey at least you were clipped in so you didn't lose the crank arm! :D
SwissChap-
Yeah it’s not as obvious as you’d think I guess!
Though my pedals are a bit fucked and have some play in them so that definitely will have masked the feeling a bit, I’ve Checked the play in those by hand recently though and didn’t notice any play in the cranks at the time so this must’ve come undone pretty quickly.

I’m not really sure to be honest, definitely lack of attention to my bike mostly to blame. I assume it has a bit to do with the fact that the rubber washer I’m using under the spindle bolt isn’t an original part and actually slightly thinner than the rotor ones?
I was just riding along and it felt like I’d started to unclip so I tried to clip back in and then I had a crank arm dangling from my foot 😂 luckily this all happened on a cycle path and not on a road.
Weirdly not the first time it’s happened to me either but last time was because the previous crank’s thread stripped which sucked.
