A totally useless blog about bikes I own and other crap that goes on in my life as a diplomat spouse living in strange lands.

Dry land is not a myth!!!
This is a first hand look at the custom made FMB/Fango tubular tires. This tire is a size 32. The tire casing is amazingly supple. Compared with the FMB tires two years ago, these seem lighter and even straighter.
The texture of the treads is incredibly sticky. I can only assume that these will not last for more than 12-15 races. So that means 3 full years of use for me.

I've got the challenge version.
The tread is great.
It does wear rather quickly.
Bike photos please.
