I am probably not riding hard at all It must be that, because I am riding both of my Virus Cyborg, 14cm waist respectively!!!, plain polished Titanal topsheet (so no additional topsheet!) with Cateks and NO sub plate and have not have had any issues at all after 60 days this season.
Hmm, maybe it’s true and the saying has some to it, “you get what you pay for”…. Na, am just not riding hard enough… :D
Cheers!
