Aye, Merlin who I got them from have shrugged it off as "probably something sharp got caught*" but have thankfully passed it onto their distributor.
*I think this is bullshit, I was riding with 16 others, no one else suffered anything and yeah, there was nothing which obviously caused the tear.
I have done some reading up on those Schwalbe Ones and they seem really well-regarded, I might get a stash of them!

Special tanwall ones available in Australia only.

Yeah but that's how flats normally happen. It only takes one sharp edge to flick up. You don't normally get a bunch ride where all 10 people puncture. It could've been cut earlier and only let go on that ride too.

Deffo ask for a refund on that as a manufacturing fault. You can see you've done barely any miles on it.
(Thanks for the headsup on the Schwalbe One offer. Bagged in 30mm to run instead of Hyper 35mms, as they appear to be discontinued and can't face the brown ones!)
