About Road Race Tubular Tyres
These tubular tyres are designed for tubular rims, these are glued on using tubular cement or tubular tape. They are the preferred choice for serious riders and professionals when all that matters is performance. A tubular is a sealed unit with an inner tube sewn into the tyres casing, this means the tubular is perfectly round in profile and offers a better feel when cornering. Vittoria have introduced open tubulars which are the same design as their tubular tyres but with a bead for use on a clincher rim, these will offer the closest feel of a tubular but the ease of repair associated with a clincher. Sizing is subtly different to clincher wheels and can be a bit confusing as most manufacturers still quote the old imperial sizes. However there are only 2 real sizes: 26" is the same as 650c, then 27", 28" and 700c are all the same size. We spotted this useful article on Bike Radar which explains briefly the benefits and how to fit tubular tyres.

I rode my wheels with these tapes on in the French Alps, 35/40 degrees celcius conditions, and heat from constant braking down mountains did not appear to affect the tapes at all.
In my opinion, the only perfect bond is to use proper tubular glue (I like Vittoria glue the best - again Wiggle do not seem to stock this item). Not hard to do well, and you can be confident there's no better bond.
R.
have heard that you need to remove existing tub glue, what is the best method of doing this?

I've always found white spirit to be good but it is not a pleasant job and does take time.
