BEST TUBBIES

[atilla]

Hi everyone,

 

What are the current best tubbies available in South Africa? When i ask "best" i refer to value for money; puncture prone; fastest.

 

What is the difference between a R750 tubby and a R1400 one?

 

Thanks guys

I try and say away from anything puncture prone.

 

Try permatubes

If you want something puncture resistant ... Continental Gatorskin Sprinter.

 

Tough as nails and probably best value for money.

How is the Zipp tangente and Conti GP4000?

The difference between the 700 and 1100 Randelas would be weight, mostly, and rolling resistance.

With less weight, comes less durability)

I roll with Conti Competition - a bit of both (durability and not too weighty)

 

I hear awesome things about the Vittoria range.

Conti Gatorskin Sprinter. As an amateur cyclist you're probably not going to get a wheel or help from a team car, so get the tubbie that does not puncture.
