tubs
Hi all,
I have some sprint wheels and want to fit my conti giro tub's, however i fitted them "dry" and inflated them to stretch them, but I noticed that the valve area is sitting slightly off the rim and I'm worried that this area will not be stuck on with the rim cement/tape.
I built the wheels using nos campag sf record hubs laced to nos mavic pro tubular rims.
I would be gratefull for your comments.

I got some Conti Giros on my wheels, exactly the same thing, no difference in performance and they didn't rub on the seat tube as I thought they might.Norfolk, who nicked all the hills?
