What's the deal with losing studs? I bought some a pair of 45nrth Gravdals (C$112 ea) and, within a week, they had each lost three studs. The LBS that sold them told me this is 'normal' and did nothing for me. 45nrth has not responded to my inquiry.

My expectation is that the shop would simply pop in a few studs for me at no charge and that 45nrth would provide extra studs and a tool along with their (expensive) tires if this is an expected problem. Failing that, they might also considering including something in the literature that accompanies the tires to warn of this and that customers should purchase spares.

What's your experience?
