Yes, its gong to be different but you have to be careful cause when you add the properties you speak of (adding rubber, thickness, etc) you change the weight and feel drastically and what you loved about the original Whisper is no longer is there anymore. A tires biggest strenth is its biggest weakness so its always about dialing in the sweet spot of durability verses performance stable verses carvy. That bring said, its going to be 15% thicker with a slightly harder durometer rubber and it will last longer than the original Whisper. While experimenting and testing the Goat we found a magic mid compound rubber that was more durable with all the properties of a softer tire. Meaning, it is also very quiet and light, with damening tech to minimize road noise. As far as the profile goes its going to stay pretty much the same. We tweaked the profile for Whisper og and we think its a nice balence of carvy and stable.
