If you do use tubulars make sure you mount them properly and don't skip steps or try and do it quickly. If your tire comes off the rim it could be dangerous. Most shops won't glue tubs because of the risk factor involved. Give yourself plenty of time to glue them and let things set. Or you can just get some clinchers and have them mounted and out riding within a few minutes or less.


This is bs. There is not an issue with tubular tires coming off (CX excluded).

The average recreational rider would probably not notice if there was no glue at all.
