Here is the trick to finding out what is going to be on bonktown. Go to the link on realcyclist.com and see how many of an item are in stock. If its a big number its going to go on bonk town. If its just a few it will be normal stock. Right now they show 52 sets of assaults tubulars in stock so that means there will be more on bonktown. There are only 3 of the clinchers in stock so they wont come up. Also dv3kt show 95 in sock, they might be a better wheel to wait for. They have the dt240 hubs.

It's ALL base...
It's true. So are we. I can't begin to imagine a world populated entirely by that half of the species that invented (real) pissing contests, fist bumps, and cheese food in aerosal cans.
IMO, there's no advantage to tubulars other than a slightly better ride quality and the possibility of lighter builds.

I've seen numerous people ride flat tubulars a half lap at a criterium to the wheel pit, and just as many people running in cleats with a shouldered bike with clinchers. Small difference (as in rare occurance), but if you're going to have a dedicated race set, why not?
