Description The Tubular Clincher is an innovation from Tufo that is sure to revolutionize the cycling world. Tubular Clinchers have all of the advantages of a tubular tire (i.e. no pinch flats), yet they are built to fit on a standard clincher wheel. Installation requires no glue, no tools, and even no rim tape. Now everyone can experience the speed and ease of a tubular tire, without shelling out the cash for a new pair of wheels.
The Tufo C S33 Special is the most popular tubular clincher in the Tufo line. It's quick enough that it can be used for racing, yet it is also tough and versatile enough to handle heavy training mileage. A great choice for racing on roads of questionable quality.
Assorted colors. Size:700x21, fits rim widths 13-14mm (most road bike wheels). Weight 335g. Inflates to 175 psi.
NOTE: the valves stems on these tires are approximately 32mm. They can be extended using a Tufo Valve Extender (see related products below).
NOTE: THESE ARE TUBULAR CLINCHER TIRES FOR CLINCHER RIMS ONLY AND NOT REGULAR TUBULAR TIRES - PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU HAVE THE CORRECT VERSION CHOSEN BEFORE PLACING YOUR ORDER.

Great rolling tires.
I was intrigued by the idea of no pinch flats and a lighter weight wheel set. No rim tape or heavy innertube. These tires ride quiet and you can inflate them easily to 125psi for a great rolling tire. Good grip on dry pavement, slightly less on wet roads. They corner very well. I have gotten almost 800 miles on a set with little sign of wear. Takes some work to get them on your rims initially, but once they are installed you are assured of a safe ride should you flat.

Durable, Light smooth. Good value for the money.
I use my tires for everyday fast group rides. These tires do not get pinch flats and have extra rubber where you need it, on the bead where the rubber meets the road. They are light and give excellent mileage and have a very smooth ride. You can inflate them to from 110 to 170Lbs depending on your preference. It takes a lot to cut the tire and when it does you need to patch the tire. Instead of taking a spare tube and tools, carry the Tufo sealer and a tube super glue. Super glue the cut then apply the sealer thru the value, give it a minute to set up then inflate. Fastest tire fix. You do not need to remove the wheel.
