Default Baffle lifetime

I saw in another thread someone's baffles in his Rush slipons only lasted about 2000 miles. What's the typical lifetime of baffles?

Default RE: Baffle lifetime

something isn't right about that. Baffles and pipes do settle in, but should most definitely not fail or break after 2000 miles.

The biggest enemy would be rust.The steel baffle should last a long time.Maybe he was referring to the wraping?
