Good to know. By the way - I'm currently trying to choose tubulars for this build and can't really decide. I thought of Continental Giros or Vittoria Rallys - they're cheap, easily available, not great quality but should be enough for this bike (as it's not a racer - more of a training machine / fun way of spending time) and most importantly - tan sidewalls. But both have non-removable valve cores so application of a liquid sealant in case of a puncture on the road is a bit troublesome. And I would like to avoid carrying spare tub all the time. Other option seems to be Tufo S33 tubs - I have one in the front of my fixed bike and like it a lot, plus they have removable valve cores. But they're all black, so not looking as good as Conti or Vittoria.
Any suggestions? Maybe there are some cheap tubs with tan sidewalls and removable cores that I've missed? Or it's not really that important and I should just put a spare tub under my saddle and not worry all that much.
EDIT: Schwalbe Milano seems to be solution :)
