Re: Warranty claim Transalp 700?

I was told by the dealer that this happens all the time and suggested sticking some plastic over it. The wear is due to my boots but should this happen so quickly? I have some photos but cannot post them - not sure how to do it.

Do you think this is a warranty issue?
My boots must have more grit ground in than yours because both sides of mine wore white in days, I think that your probably on a hiding to nothing regarding the warrenty but agree that using coated plastic rather than alloy is pretty poor.
