race only tubular tire -- narrow
Quote | Reply
Having failed to sell an old Hed Stinger 90 -- so 21 or 22mm wide? -- I wonder about building it up.

Can anyone recommend a narrow race-only tubular for the front? Does anyone still make such a thing?

Oh, and no Continentals (butyl? seriously?) need apply.

Vittoria Crono CS, one of the fastest tubulars EVER tested...they rate just above a track tubular as far as puncture resistance. When I raced them I flatted only once.

Veloflex Records are still available in 22, I think. Pretty darn fast too, iirc. Definitely not for rough roads, but I suspect sealant would help.
