Yes but I like the way it's handling at the moment, better than my last 3 thous. I like a hard ride, oo-er! I'm not really complaining, just after 30 years of riding bikes, 15 years of working in the trade, I've never heard of people getting these kinds of mileages from their tyres, not on 600s and over anyway. All I can think of is that tyre tech has improved so even stickier tyres are lasting longer. After all, I only used to average about 4000 per rear!
