Incidentally, will you be building this up as pure track or road/track.
This will be getting the full track treatment.
The Fiamme Sprint rims have arrived super light. Can't tell if they have a braking surface but assume they're for track only?
Plenty of old glue on them. Off to read the tubular rims thread to school myself on all things tubular.

Tubs do perish yes, in my experience. I had some relatively old 7o's ones on some Fiamme rims for a bit but they leaked everything-air, water, bits of old rubber and thread. Did not last more than 2 or 3 rides in the dry.
Incidentally, will you be building this up as pure track or road/track. I have a bluemels alloy spearpoint that although a bit bent and battered is of the right era I could be persuaded to part with. This is it on my JA Holland a few months back
