Pretty much the case--you'll notice some slight 'shrinking' where the release calipers connect to the loop, you may want to change the loop at this time
It's only about $3. to have that changed andIwould say it's better thangetting nose.
What you should pay more attention to are the two knots on the lood, make absolutely certain they're properly secured--usually the knots come loose before the loop rope gives!!!
