By "unround" I meant in cross section. The pair I have mounted nice and true and seem to ride fine so far.

Got FMB tubulars now on both wheelsets for my 1975 Motobecane. One wheelset has large flange Campagnolo Record hubs with polished alloy Super Champion rims, the other wheelset has low flange Campagnolo Record hubs with dark anodized Mavic GP4 rims. Loving the ride!

Clearly, superior "quality of ride" which, alas, so v. few who have the means to do, choose instead not to, eschewing classic geometry lugged steel for somethin' right outta China, right outta the box and down the road.

Don't eschew with your mouth open. It's not polite. ;-)

Riding sewups is like adopting like a religion; if someone has to convince you it's the way to go--it isn't.
