No you cannot.
to remove them, follow this:

step 1

ppl who post lmgtfy links are worse than ppl who don't google in the first place

But not as bad as barely literate morons who use text speak.

No, no they are not.

They are the enlightened.

They are the future and the light.

They are the only way this planet will make it into the next millenium.

And I answered both his questions succinctly.

cyclotron tubs and clinchers are incompatible do not try and mix and match.

k, is it easy to change the tubular tyre, it seems soooo much hassle to glue the tyre onto the rim.

if you don't know how to change a tub (as I expect most of us on here do not), you don't want to even think about riding on one around London.

I assume you're removing it because it's punctured? Have you tried a sealant like Vittoria Pit Stop first?

erm its not punctured , its just a very old tyre which looks a bit tatty, kinda wanted to get rid of it and put new ones on. p.s. i dont live in london so thumbs up for tubs?

you are jonnyrau

Tubs for racing, clinchers for training.

what you do is, find the search button, then you enter 'tubular'- this will give you lots of threads on the same subject

sticking tubs onto rims for general purpose use is a lot easier with rim tape, forget glue,and they ride very nicely. disclaimer: riding competition really requires glue

they are just over 20 years old i think so they need changing

Just about cured.

:)

is this a clincher or a tubular? I am soooo confused, as it doesn't seem to be glued down yet i cant see the inner tube...

actually i see the inner tube but the tyre is soooo tight to the rim. its a clincher!

can't tell shit from that picture. Is the tyre a complete circle, as in, can you inflate the tyre itself.

fnck my old boots!

tubular
