Since this is a perpetual source of discussion I ran accross a nice arrticle with pictures on how to mount a tubular…
Excelent article. The pictures are a great help. Exactly what I’ve been looking for the past week. Thanks for the “heads-up.”
Thanks, good info. I see that mounting tubulars is called an ‘Advanced’ technique. Hem. No wonder I’ve stuck with clinchers all these years…
Having said which, I confess I’ll be putting tubulars on my new carbon race wheels this weekend. I have 3 different articles on the process, Dan’s from this site, Zipp’s, and now this one. Whee.
Too bad I didn’t see this before I glued on my new Tufos last week. I think/hope/pray I did it right.
BTW, it was much less of a chore than I thought. I stretched them on the rims for a couple days first and didn’t have any trouble getting them on.
I put 50 miles on my HED Jet, and Deep and everything held together, still need to get some time in on the Disc before Eagleman. :-0
I’ll throw another site out there.
Look under “Recent Web Updates” for the “Tubular Tire Advice” section.
