  • Anybody know if anyone makes blue tubulars, preferably with black walls? If so, any idea where I can get my hands on some?

    Cheers!

  • Vredestein has Fortezza tubulars in blue/blue, but tan sidewall
    I'm sure there are several others.
    Vittoria Corsa CX is black with a thin blue strip on tread

  • Yes.

    oh fuck off.

    not to mention the fact that it doesn't actually show up any blue tubs with black sidewalls, the closest result in the uk being http://www.jejamescycles.co.uk/vittoria-corsa-evo-item140270.html which isn't really blue with black sidewalls, more black with blue stripe down the middle.

  • ...I find using google image often helps more for bike bits.

  • Veloflex Corsa 20

    ...they are 'open tubulars' - I have no clue what the diff is or if you can run them on normal tubs.

  • open tubular isn't a tubular tire, it's a clincher designed to perform like a tub with out the faff of glue etc.

    so shoot again google monkies!

  • ah yes... just read the description...

    Maybe give some bike shops that stock tubs a call.

    I recon the all blue Grand Comp ones or blue + gum wall look much better.

  • Yes.

    Hmmm, helpful. Thanks.

    Do you think I would be posting a thread if I hadn't already tried google and gone to different stores? I came up with nothing so I thought I'd draw on the collective wisdom of the forum for help.

    Thanks to everyone who isn't hippy though!

    *can't seem to get a direct link to the tyre. Go to Tubulars --> Road and BANG its the blue one (s3 lite - in blue)

    TUFO for the mother fucking win. If going Tubular go Tufo. You may be able to find the tyre cheaper elsewhere. Sonic are UK distributers so have to sell at RRP.

    Admitidly its not ALL blue, but its alot of blue.
    EDIT: Ah you wanted black sidewalls. Awsome. I win. Exactly what you wanted, with the added bonus of being super awsome tyres (I'm riding a 650c S3 - its the shit).

  • TUFO for the mother fucking win. If going Tubular go Tufo.

    Except if you are riding an indoor track.

    Damn.
    You is right.

  • Harry.Major, you are a legend! That's exactly what I was looking for!
    If you see a lanky bloke riding near Brick Lane with a blue Tufo tub on a Zipp carbon rear wheel, ask him for a pint, it'll most likely be me! I owe you one!

    Cheers everyone!

  • :) I'll hold you to that.

  • How blue? Royal, navy, baby?

    I've got baby blue Vittoria Competition Nouvo on the rim from Pajamas, but the walls are gum things.
    Tufo does blue tubs, but they're 30mm.

  • By the way, this thread is so wrong.
    I've just recovered form having blue rims with white tyres on a white/blue frame and now this... Facepalm! Regress.

  • Tufo does blue tubs, but they're 30mm.

    The Tufo S3 is 21c

  • while we are on the topic of tubs, can anyone recommend some good tubulars for daily riding?

  • oh fuck off.

    not to mention the fact that it doesn't actually show up any blue tubs with black sidewalls, the closest result in the uk being http://www.jejamescycles.co.uk/vittoria-corsa-evo-item140270.html which isn't really blue with black sidewalls, more black with blue stripe down the middle.

    Go fuck yourself. Did you even look at the results?

    The first shopping link is for Vittoria Corsa Evo CX Tubular blue/black.

    What more help do you need?

  • If you see a lanky bloke riding near Brick Lane with a blue Tufo tub on a** Zipp carbon rear wheel**, ask him for a pint

    Half the forum.

    What's it for TT ing?

  • :) I'll hold you to that.

    Please do!

  • The Tufo S3 is 21c

    Yep, but I didn't know they made them in blue (I actually have one black/red in 650c and knew about black, red and yellow only)

  • To Baileyxxx - about the only slightly sane daily tub set-up would be a tufo with sealant.
    My 2p,
    S.

    It'll be tasteful I promise. Black frame, Carbon rims, just needs a touch of colour to stop it being bland, no luminous BS.
