I've read multiple opinions on the pros and cons of using 3M Fast Tack including Tom's in the other tubular thread.
I bought my 1st set of tubular wheels almost two yrs ago at InsideOut Sports and had 3M Fasttack recommended, as well as leaving about a 4 inch section, opposite valve stem sans glue to facilitiate removal.
I put two coats on both tire and rim before mounting. I inspect wheels every time I use them - they're also Rev-Xs so inspection is only common sense in my mind.
I've had to change two tires, one side-wall puncture from a piece of bailing wire, and one leaky valve stem discovered at a 1/2 IM.
Am I setting myself up for high-speed-roll failure?
what's the dealio????
