Any estimate on how many miles you'd get out of it??

Put about 2600 miles on it before they wanted it back. Looking forward to getting the new one but the old SE one will have to do till then.

The prototype Lou had was a softer metal somewhere between 23 and 35 rockwell. The production ones are 57 rockwell, better get at least 50k for the rough riders and more for the grand pa's.
