Sorry that this is off topic, but it may be of interest to those who like to run the bikes that they ride regularly on tubulars but get tired of gluing them on.

Available from me now are Beaded Tubulars for Clincher rims.

These are traditional Black file treaded Tubulars, with tan side walls. Officially 700C X 21mm, but inflates to a 22mm section. 130 psi. They have a beaded base tape that clips in to a clincher rim. They cannot be used on tubular rims. They require no glue and no tools to fit or remove. They can be ridden flat as they stay on the rim when punctured, the same as a standard glued on tubular does. From a distance they look like a classic Tubular, they give the ride feel of a tubular, but are easier to live with and very quick to fit.

They are manufactured in the Czech Republic by the Tufo people. I have had them re branded, tuning down the Garish Tufo logos. The new brand is DRNY and the model is a DRNY No 1. They are only available from me. $19 each. I can email photos of the Logos and tread pattern.

There is also a Garishly Coloured DRNY No 5, for racing types, probably not of interest to the CR list.
