Alaphilippe was riding Roval CLX clincher wheels with Turbo Cotton tyres yesterday, apparently first TDF stage ever won on clinchers.
I doubt that. Banesto definitely rode clinchers in the early 90s, mainly on mountain stages because of concerns over tubular glue melting in high temperatures.
There might have been a tt stage or two won on clinchers?
