My Holdsworth Avanti came with scruffy Mavic Monthlery Route tubular rims, I didn't know what tubulars were.
Built some Mavic MA2 clincher rims in case I needed to go somewhere that might involve fixing a flat on the road.
Rebuild the Monthlery Route with Campy hubs and stainless spokes, and polished them up.
Then I had a flat and discovered Orange Seal.
I've been riding tubular exclusively for the last 900 miles, and looking very fine.

As I have stated many times I have a trunk pack on both my bike and trike that is a mini bike shop, I dont like to walk home. I carry tubes, patch kits, CO2 inflator, a mini pump, and tire boots.
