Picked up a pair of Mavic 520s laced to Mavic Argent 10 rims, 36 hole tied and soldered. Very nice, very light, but tubular.
For running around town do I - buy cheap tubulars at £25 a piece or better tubulars at £40 a piece, then deal with all the crap that comes with them. Or do I buy some clincher rims and tires, which will probably set me back a similar amount, then rebuild the wheels and never worry about tubs again.
