Prusament ASA

I'm trying to reprint my MK3S+ in black ASA, the parts are very brittle! For example, the rod holders for the bed crack at the slightest tightening of the top screw and the x-axis cracks as soon as I slightly tighten the bearing guide (I've printed and tried it 3x now) 

Am I doing something wrong? Should it be this brittle?

RE: Prusament ASA

ASA can be a little brittle, and that increases if the filament is hydrated.  I would not print all of your parts on ASA.

Thanks, so the backstory for my ASA decision was to ensure I would have problems after enclosing my MK3. If I don't print all parts in ASA, which ones should I be concerned about when the printer is enclosed?

I only print part near the hotend or heatbed.  Those are the only PETG parts that I have ever had warp.
