Anyway, to the OP, tubulars are great! Get them, but only make the jump if you can afford higher quality tires. Cheap tubulars are worse than cheap clinchers and can definitely ruin the experience for you.
Oh yeah, I agree 100%. Kissena is like that and I find running my tubulars higher than 120 PSI is troublesome (there are some bumps that will hop my rear wheel if the pressure is too high).

In my experience tubulars aren't worth the hassle for street riding but I know many people who would disagree with me. I chalk it up to bad luck on my part.
