Tubolito cost me a lot of time at the CTCT. Slow leak which I tried to bomb. Turned out the valve was leaking where it joined the main body. Only a few rides on it. This was a replacement cause the previous one exploded when i pumped it up out of the tire looking for a leak. Another one had a leak and the special patches did not work. Thrown 2 away and will toss the last remaining one.
A tube messed up my Argus time. Had a slow leak which I bombed. Lost a lot of time. Mental note : ALWAYS change the tube upfront!!! Used those orange Tubolites and it leaked where the valve joined the main body. Mental note : throw them away!!!! Mental note: go tubeless with Orange Seal and crack 3:30 next time:)
A delicate wash? Don't wash with other clothes? Who wrote this garbage? I chuck my Assos in the laundry basket and it appears on my bed all clean and raring to go. I have been using Assos for 12 years - it suits my muscular physique
I have had 4 punctures in the past month and was advised to go tubeless. On asking around I have had conflicting replies. The Cons are seating issues and mess everywhere when you puncture. The Pros are no stopping for punctures and better ride. I have not met anyone who actually rides tubeless!! Any thoughts?

I think unethical is not honoring the first person who called dibs on your price. That is why this thread has started - because of lack of ethics. I also buy a lot of golf stuff on an American forum and in 10 years of buying, I have had no problems with my dibs's. I must say though, I have had no problems with my numerous dealings in The Hub
A very good thread Smimby. The biggest problem in this country are impatient motorists. A very much smaller problem are cyclists who don't obey the rules. If motorists gave us 1,5 meters then the roads would be safer for everyone. I don't believe riding 2 abreast on a wide road is a problem - in fact it is safer as motorists don't squeeze you off the tar.
