But if the goat lives or you only have access to a pet bunny, is it possible for the tire to roll off the rim when cornering?
I only have one cycling compadre who still uses tubulars and he spends BY FAR the highest percentage time of all of us not riding his bike when he should be. Only some of this is down to punctures but all the other issues and lack of Campag chainring availability goes with the territory
