our of curiosity , why did you get a rear clincher hed if it will never see the track ? seems like a huge headache , Ive seen several rear clinchers , even turned down a awesome deal on a lime green rear hed clincher .

well , no . I got a fixed gear cause its convenient . Theres nothing convenient about skidding and blowing out a tubie , pulling it off and getting a new one glued on. Especially when there are just as many clincher rear hed's for sale, I dont see why you would buy a tubular .

sigh..... [ i really dont want to even respond.]

i dont see how a rear clincher hed is different (in actuality) to a rear clincher spoked wheel.

why would you assume my bike will never see the track? just b/c i have risers on the bike? you know i can put some drops on in a heart beat. I have two bikes, this is the track one that i occasionally ride on the streets. I dont skid everywhere i go. I have a obey to mess around with. People love to hate on this site.... its my preference who the hell cares!!! LOL
