    no, this one didn't wear out to the fibres before blowing out like the other ones

    i did crash at 20 minutes after locking up the rear into a corner - gave the still running bike a check over and all was good, including the tyre.

    this one seems to have split on a defect in the tyre - looking at it it had a few holes other where poor quality would've cause it to leak a lot of air was it not full of sealant. when i got that full of sealant the tyre guy showed me that in a bucket of water the whole tyre was porus

    green splodge of sealant is the leak/puncture/split

    no fibres showing anywhere and a reasonable amount of rubber left
