comfortable not too much , the vibrations will not be disposed as a normal wheelset. but definitely quicker.
i also never had zero flats and i'm running a cheap vittoria tubular .
Another cons is , for a good rolling tubular you had to spend a lot of money!
for the clinchers wheelset i'm running a pair of michelin dynamic sport , very cheap and durable (25$ a pair) i think the most priced/quicker clinchers i can get is around 17-23$ a single one , but for the tubular i had to spend 50$+
also the tubular i'am using , they haven't the valve core replaceable that means no punture protection liquid.
