Question = Will tubular rims/tires make my vintage roadie ride better? What's with the gluing?

Answer = Lose nearly a pound (or more) from your vintage wheelset and you will notice a difference. Gluing = be careful, be neat, read about it first.

Didn't realize it was a Stupid question until recently - upon becoming "a tubular newb", and quickly a believer. And this improvement with closeout Vittoria Rallys. Next wheelset will get fitted with more expensive tubes. Every acceleration feels a little bit easier, handling may be a tad lighter.
