• Is it insane to use tubs for every day riding? There's so many insanely good deals on tub rim brake wheelsets right now and I'm curious. Road surfaces here in Los Angeles aren't great but there's not loads of shit on the road - they are relatively clean from a flint and gravel perspective. It also never really rains.

  • Is it insane to use tubs for every day riding?

    If it is, then I'm insane. I have bad experiences with carbon clincher rim-brake rims, none with carbon tub rims with rim brakes. I take a can of Pitstop and an ultralight track tub as backup. Never had to call a cab or walk home yet.

  • then I'm insane

    It's that special kind of insanity where you have more money that sense. If you're using carbon wheels for everyday riding, all bets are off.
