What do you mean by that? I get what you mean with cyclocross. It's all about being able to run low pressures I've heard. If you're asking about daily riding with tubs, that's been covered many a time. Tubs just aren't as convenient as clinchers (although I've never had a single puncture on Rubino Pros or Gatorskins).
I'm very tempted by a nice lightweight sprint wheelset for the geared bike but don't like the idea of being stranded 60 miles from home (and probably 30 miles from civilisation).
