Bad finishing on those tyres. I once posted a comparison pic between that Heliconia's and standard Malaysia's nose gear. Surely, that Heliconia's front gear looks like a thin OG since I almost can't see its hub. Probably it was something to do with the material used or... quality control?

By the way, someone else here also reported his Heliconia's tyres came off. Mine didn't come off, those tyres really 'bite' the hubs until they almost 'eat' them all. Different problems but I am not happy either with those gears. Could have been done better than that.
