Default Lucky?

Had a set of pp2ct's delivered Monday morning.

I was going to fit at work them last night, but the misses gave me some negative feed back about the cost

so after a little ..discusion.. I could not be bothered.

Today I felt the rear tyre squirm under hard acceleration at nearly full lean, but thought I was pushing it a bit too hard.

Rolled it onto the ramp this morning to remove the wheels & discovered a screw straight through the center of the rear tyre. Rear pressure was down to 23 psi when I took it off.

Does everything happen for a reason?

Of course it'll be your fault the screw made it's way into your tyre - just after you bought new rubber.
