Carbon clinchers are inherently flawed and must be withdrawn from the market...Carbon wheels were initially designed for the track and time trialling...Tubular clinchers are ok(overpriced for what they do)..however carbon clinchers are inherently flawed....
Ok Dura ace wheel has an alloy braking surface but the masses are still buying £1000.00 carbon clinchers for sportifs and racing. They don't need to.

    Pretty much most things we buy we don't need to.

    I thought you'd found some dangerous flaw. Mehhh.

    Personally, I would never trust a carbon clincher, I'll only ride tubulars when it comes to carbon rims.
