Mine really should have popped. The braking surface was pretty poor though. My basalt braking surface is a lot better. more effect, and less heat build up. I've taken to scrubbing speed With the rear brake, before moving to the front to get Down to a managable turning speed though. To spread the heating.
To be honest I've started to fecking hate road clinchers. Such a pain in the arse. Going to swap the fixie beater to alu tubulars when I have the funds.
