so I've been riding on my clinchers, without fear because there's nothing pointy to flat me on the track
after a break between efforts, I grab my bike to go back out and the rear is flat
now I'm sufficiently freaked out
so if I'm buying tubular wheels, I might as well just get a quality set and be done with it
here are the sets and prices currently in the running
Campy Pista aluminum----------(38mm 2105g)-----$665
Kazane carbon--------------------(50mm 1550g)-----$875
Zipp 404 used---------------------(58mm 1730g)-----$1000
Cane Creek Sprint 85------------(85mm 1896g)-----$1200
any huge reason why any of these are far superior or inferior to the others on a quality per dollar basis?
