Only available as proper tubs though. Mr. Fleming asked the Tufo man at
Eurobike if they were planning to produce the tubular clinchers in 20" and was told "no". Mr. Fleming was Not Pleased. -- Dave Larrington - http://www.legslarry.beerdrinkers.co.uk/ ================================================== ========= Editor - British Human Power Club Newsletter http://www.bhpc.org.uk/ ================================================== ========= |

I've been to the Tufo web site, and they are
commonly offered on Ebay. Never seen one in person though. -Rick |

Well, my mistake. I've seen the Tufo tires on
Ebay a lot. The 20" tires haven't come up for auction that I've noticed. -Rick |

I have the only 20" 406 erto tufo tubular clincher in existance. Last
year I was working with tufo as a beta tester for this tire. They made only one test tire and sent it to me. Worked great.... only problem is that it would fit my Vuelta airliner rim properly and that was it. It would not fit a narrower rim such as my hed wheel with velocity rim. Other than that it was a nice ride and felt faster than the stelvio. http://groups.msn.com/BicyclingForum...PhotoID=29 14 http://groups.msn.com/BicyclingForum...PhotoID=29 13 The other tires mentioned here are tubular for indoor wheelchair use with only 60 tpi count. Not very suitable for outdoor road use. The tire I have is the same as Tufo's S3 21mm racing tire. |

What is behind the Baron's seat in the picture named "Bike 3"? That is an insulated wedge shaped bag in which I carry my 90 0z camelback bladder. There is an identical bag on the otherside where other stuff goes like pump and tubes and stuff. These stay on the bike when the tailbox goes on. It is actually a windshield wedge bag from Arctic cat. I just put them upside down.......the zipper is on top. nice aero bag behind the seat and holds a lot. |
