Nah, i meant with proper tubeless. And yes, with a tube/tyre interface moving all the time, it will keep reopening the hole/breaking the sealbugloss":18o4i06b said:I can't quite imagine how you can see all those puncture sites in a tubular tyre, as you'd need to unstitch the thing the whole way round to see all of the inner ?
TBH, unless the road is properly mirror smooth, even a 19mm probably doesn't need to be that high (unless you are knocking on the door of 20 stone, or riding tandem).bugloss":18o4i06b said:Or tubulars that have to put up with the weight of my fat arse on them.Old Ned":18o4i06b said:How about a 19mm tub on an aero rim (Wolber etc.) which need at least 150 psi? I seem to remember running mine considerably higher than that in time trials. Also running tubulars on a racing tandem.
Don't half go off with a bang though :shock:![]()
Plus I have the pleasure of riding on roads surfaced by the king of tarmac and I like to rollllllll.
And i've not seen a mirror smooth road to time trial on for probably 20 years!
