Like I said, extenuating circumstances. Descending Chalkpit in the wet. Petrol on a corner. A slippy off-camber corner that had a few other people wobbling too.
However, I ride my other bikes a similar amount in similar conditions and have never had an issue. I feel like 47c tyres run at ~20 psi shouldn’t really be slipping out at all on tarmac...
