I love sewups (glue-ons,tubular) tires. Currently I'm using Tufo. Nice tire,nice ride,nice price. I tend to the old school,however and find that ...I love the smell of rim glue in the morning...it smells like...victory.!
But it is a hassle.
Anyone using rim tape? Success? Failures?
I searched threads and found a few things...but am looking for more current info...and opinions.
Chime in!
Thanks, Anton

I've heard some good things about it. And would try it myself although I've been warned not use use it with tires brands other than Tufo. Since my current connection gets me Vittoria's, I'm sticking with glue.

I thought you might be his younger brother.
I didn't know about your promotion either.
