i ride tubs on the regs in london - only as my bicycle came with tub rims, and due to how stingy i am with money i will have to break them before i buy new ones.

the bike came with wolbers and the front was dead:( so i replaced with a giro for a tenner - lasted for 6 months including riding in croatia. the wolber on the rear then went and replaced with a vittoria rally

punctured within 2 weeks - replaced with another rally ..lasted for about a month

replaced with giro - still going!

cheap and cheerfull -

although what are these invulnerable wolber tings? -

in 13 months of riding tubs - ive spent about 40quid on new tubs + tape

hmm, aww damn that's a lot actually :(

... although what are these invulnerable wolber tings ..?

25 year old tires, tub & clincher, which were steel belted.

I'd like to say Continental Gatorskin Sprinters are the way forward...

but burst mine over a drain cover couple weeks ago.

£40 a POP...fssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss
