Clinchers Vs Tubulars Vs Tubeless – Which Tyres Should You Choose For Your Road Bike & Why?

The clinchers vs. tubulars debate is long running. Which tyres should you choose? Click here to subscribe to our channel: http://gcn.eu/SubscribeToGCN Clincher tyres are the standard; they're almost certainly what you had on your bike when you first got it. Tubular tyres are the pro racers standard; they need to be glued to your wheels, which takes a bit of expertise, but the pros had steadfastly refused to move away from them, even though excellent clincher tyres and wheels are now available. And, now there's a third option, tubeless clincher tyres. These have been used in mountain biking for years now, but have proved more difficult to adapt to the road and are yet to really gain much traction in the pro peloton, although they do offer lots of grip. Which do you ride? Let us know what and why in the comments.
