I had tubulars when I was on rim brakes. I left that bike at home with my parents and brother. I miss those wheels everytime I race. This beautifully built set of Ultegra hubs to some older (very shallow) aluminum rims.

I also raced on some carbon reynolds (also tubular) last year as well that were almost as good, but not quite. Even if they weighed like 400g less.

Next year I'll be on tubulars. But for now I bought a new set of (actually tubeless this time) tires. They're 35c which I'm not a huge fan of running "illegal" tires, but I'm in a series that doesn't care and it will be close no matter what is printed on the side wall.

Regarding tss, I just wanted to get some more riding in after a frustrating race and I do not regret it at all! What a gorgeous morning it was!
