I have always LOVED the ride quality of tubulars, but they're just not practical for everyday unsupported rides. Even when I raced, I only used the tubulars during a race when there was a wheel pit or support vehicle nearby and ran clinchers while training (ok always tubulars on the velodrome, but that's irrelevant here). I even explored running tubulars with sealant in them, but realized even then you can't just throw a tube in one to get you home like you can with a tubeless tire.

Unless you have mobile support on your rides, or want a second pair you only use on rides that have roaming support, stick with tubeless.
