'Dale Posted April 28, 2016 Share I pump my 25mm tyre to max 7bar on my chinese carbon rims. Most of the time I ride them at around 6bar no hassle and I weigh above 90kgAs comfy as an old sofaNice i drop mine to as low as 5 in wet weather (clinchers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NISI Posted April 28, 2016 Share I use to train and race on tubbies and never walked home(always carried a spare tubbie with).I now ride only on clinchers and won't go back to tubbies.Just the hassle if you puncture to repair the tire it's not worth it.Anyway you don't want to race on a patched tubbie,clinchers just put a new tube on your race wheels and it is reliable again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Marshall Posted April 28, 2016 Share As DragoRosso said - the new clincher rims are generally a bit wider than they were and the tire sits and feels like a tubby. In my workshop I don't "do" tubbies. If you want them, sort them out yourself! My opinion - not worth it - even at a discount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venom1 Posted April 28, 2016 Share back in the day tubbies are far superior and lighter.the gap of clinchers is marginal now and with more benefits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
