Most guys I know saw Tubulars are better for crits. That being said, most everything about tubulars-- except for initial cost-- is more expensive.

The norm is a Carbon Aero Clincher. A lot opt for tubular too.

Before I joined I lurked for a long time and actually searched the archives to learn rather than ask the same questions people have been asking (apparently) for years. Imagine that. This is an issue in all public forums, not just BF.
