Re: tubulars vs. clinchers



Tim-<< Huh.  I rarely pinch flat (and I weigh 210 lbs), don't inflate my
clinchers to 120 psi, and have never had a tire come off when flat.
This stuff is just the traditional red herrings from the tubular
crowd.
 >><BR><BR>

Ya want to use clinchers, go right ahead but spare me the 'clinchers' do this
or that when compared to tubies, if you have not actually used them...

These things may be some sort of fish to you, but in the bike shop and from my
own personal experience, pinch flats do happen on clinchers, seldom do on
tubies, I have been behind a guy that rolled off a flat clincher, just before
he crashed...
