I can squeeze two 25mm Gatorskins in my Jandd but then I need a place for sealant and a couple tools. So on a ride where I want two spares, I use my Acorn Medium which is a bottomless pit.

These are the shortest that I've come across:

Two of these would probably fit. Tufo Elite Jet- a great spare tire.

Ah! a proper fold!

Is that tread good in the wet? I did my first open (real/non-club) race in pouring rain on orange thread Vittoria cottons. Interesting! Good thing was it was a long race, no corners and quite literally dampened by the weather.

When I get a bunch of nice tires in the mail, I feel compelled to mount (unglued) at least one set for a ‘gander’ and a smile. 27mm

Didn’t mount the pair of clincher Conti5000s, which I hope I like as much as the Vittoria Corsa G+ somethingorother.

I just bought 2 great bags that @jamesdak recommended on the Vintage Carbon thread. Holds 2 tubs plus tools. Appears to be the angle of the dangle. I used it this weekend, plenty of room.

Yes I can fold them neatly ala DiabloScott and two will not fit in the JandD bag. Other methods also. A variable in all this may be the tire itself.

You are referring to tubulars? I have tried with 23mm Contis.

No. I think not.

You're killing me. You tease with good info and then don't share a link.

This is the totally tubular thread and there are two 22mm Sprinter Gatorskins in this Tufo Branded Jandd bag. My 25s are mounted.
Which Continental comes in a 23?

Gatorskins are pretty bulky. Competitions take up less room but then on a normal road ride I wouldn’t carry two tires anyway. But if I want two spares —think Eroica or BWR—I’ll use a bigger saddle bag.

Nag, Nag, Nag. But yer right....

BTW, will be in Manchester this weekend. I think we're riding 51 on Saturday.

Old Sprinter 250s. And I stand corrected.

Thank you sir.

nice but i don't have that much seat tube real estate :)

Me too--- but I might try to copy it in leather and size it to fit my average seat post reveal. Great idea and the bottle holder could double as a space to carry additional items when extra fluids are not needed.

What's this tubular glue/tape?
 

Shifting gears a bit, but still on the tubular tire topic... I purchased a pair of used Dugast cyclocross tubulars at the last Brazen Dropouts swap meet. One tire had some issues with the sewing of the casing (tearing). I got around to fixing that the other day and am now thinking about mounting them on some bike (most likely whatever they will fit). Unfortunately, they have a new-to-me glue reside of some sort. It kind of looks like snot from a bad cold and has the consistency of that adhesive used to affix gift cards at the checkout counter to the cardboard backing - very rubbery, doesn't stick to your fingers. What is it? Is it tubular tape residue or some other type of tubular (or other) glue? Should I attempt to remove all/most of it before gluing the tire to the rim with Vittoria Mastik One? Is it possible something Dugast applied to their tires (I suspect not)?

Challenge Elite tires are $29 again at ProBilkeKit. I get 10% off. I don't know if you do. Of course exclusions apply, and I didn't check.

I rode the Spesh Turbo 24mm turbos today. They are just beginning to wear thru the outer rubber in a couple of spots on the rear. But today's ride was on generally smooth pavement, and at 105/115psi they absolutely disappear beneath my almost 190 pounds.

Punlic Service Announcement - checking Spesh for a sale price to replace, I found their tubular cyclocross seem to be on sale. Timely?

Hi,
Anyone have a 700c to match the 650c I picked up? I need to make a pair...I now am looking for a (700c) in decent condition.... got one you want to part with.
https://cimg9.ibsrv.net/gimg/bikefor...6a0b9b2277.png
Yeah, it's orange....Any help much appreciated!
Best, Ben

Boy, I had one of those as a spare for the longest time... no promises but I'll have a look in my reserve drawers.

Edit - oops, it was a Michelin.

DiabloScott,
Many thanks for looking, I will keep my fingers crossed!!!!
Nice looking M BTW.
Best, Ben

Unfortunately right color, but wrong size...

What size do you have....I am looking for a 700c.
Thanks, Ben

OK. I get it now. You found a front 650c tire and wheel and your LOOKING FOR a 700c tire for the rear that matches in every way but diameter.

Yes, correct.
Thanks, Ben

Sorry to get your hopes up- I thought you were looking for 650c, and was commenting on DiabloScott's post.

There's the Tufo Elite Jet shown above- somewhat similar size & color...

Many thanks, Ben
