That sounds like a terrible idea. Although i doubt you'd even be able to inflate it, if you could get it on at all.

It's perfectly safe to put a clincher tire on a tubular rim.
It's RIDING ON IT that would be dangerous.

I got a good chuckle from it.
Some things just aren't as obvious to all, as they are to some.
