At 9000 kms, it was just getting broken in!
If I'm not mistaking the Schwable are more expensive as well. Are they worth it?
I'm asking because I was recommended the gatorskin and to be honest I was very disapointed. I still have the tire but it's on my spare wheel because I dont trust the thing. I got more flats with my gatorskin within 4000 kms than all my other tires put together in 15000 kms (approx.) since I started commuting 3 years ago.
All that put together I prefer buy cheap tires even if I have to replace more frequently
