Are tubular tyres any good?

haha mine skreeched soo much at first that i tried not to skid infront of other people
after i learnt to just lock my legs it stopped though, it only skreeches when u let your feet slightly backpeddle

Ok. I've only just started skidding on that bike (high gearing and tubs) so i guess the 'Screaming Pig' sound effects could pass. I hope so.

I'm going out on that bike tonight with a new 1 tooth bigger cog... I think I'm going to drown out the sounds of fireworks !!!

tubs are great! you'll be especially popular on night rides, is your name down for the 15th?

No, they're shit!

Mine also make a crazy loud skreeeching noise. That's a bit embarrassing in built-up areas.
Have you had any experience of the tyres moving or rolling off the rim? I (touch wood) haven't.

Yes, I had a rear one roll off on a fast (50+mph) descent.
I ride clinchers now...

poof.

poof.

You asked the question.
I answered it.
Sorry if it wasn't the answer you wanted to hear.

You skid on tubs? Credit crunch not hitting hard enough? Fuck that..

well i learnt to skid last week, skidded through 2 tyres, said i wouldn't skid again, skidded a little 2day because it was wet so that was fine but then some glass punctures my tyre anyways, im unlucky

Unlucky?
