Mom never told me about these?thanks Mom!

http://www.tufonorthamerica.com/tiretypes.php CLINCHER TIRES:
from all choices clincher tire is the heaviest
necessity to use inner tube, adds more weight, lowers rolling resistance
necessity to use rim liner, extra part and more weight
clincher type tire is heavier than tubular tire
higher rolling resistance in comparison with tubular tires
in case of flat , the repair is possible (not easy) or the tube has to be changed
no need to utilize glue, installation is difficult and sometimes impossible without using tools
immediate use after installation
in case of flat, direct and instant affect on the stability and safety of the rider

  1. I will need to see more on this, before I become a beleiver. Looks like a standard clincher rim. How are repairs handled? Do they ride as well as tubulars? What are the pro's and con's.
