There's no substitute for a high-TPI, Graphene + silica-infused, latex-lined tubular racing tire. Unless you're training. Then the Rally Tubular glues on as a substitute sew-up, saving your high-value, high-performance racing weapons for the miles that really count - those between start and finish lines. The Rally's supple ride keeps you connected to the road in a way that traditional clinchers and tubeless simply can't, but the lower cost helps defray the pain of the occasional puncture during base miles or interval training. Early spring is critical for building preseason racing fitness. It's also the season for debris-strewn roads and tire-destroying conditions. The Rally is more than equal to that abuse.
