  • Road race day wheels. Open tubular & latex tubes or tubless. Maybe even tubs ?

    Much as title
    I’m after some new fast wheels , climbing wheels but can’t make my mind up
    Full tubs would be lighter but are a faff
    so latex tubes or tubless your experiences please

    I’ve played around with various Reynolds wheels and I’d say tubeless feels smoother and is quicker.
    If you have hills it’s not advisable to have rim brakes, carbon rims and latex tubes.

    Yep rim brake but tends to be many short climbs nothing more than 170m height gain in one go. And yes new wheels probably carbon.

    I’m not a brake dragger as this bike won’t see the rain
