my Comp16s to be exact. The actual treds still have some life to them but the side knobs are all broken half-way through at the casing, enough that i could pinch them off with my fingers..they litterally seem like the rubber's crumbling. Also they seem to be fragile in general, have put two holes in the casing since, big enough that a tire plug was required (tubless with sealant). Anyone else?
the original one i bought (and that the shop received plenty of) were cracked brand new, and my lbs guy had some inside info that this is sometimes the result of them experimenting with 'new' compounds (or oxidants as it was put). This could explain why they're allegedly comming out with a dual compound tire; hard on the inside, soft on the outside.
i really hate having a 100$ tire prematurely dissintagrate. My Comp32s never behaved like this.
