Why Choose The 50mm Carbon Clincher?

One would wonder why they should chose clinchers over tubes to anchor bicycle tires to the rims. A professional athlete might puzzle you when they praise the clincher wheels and their sterling performance when training yet criticize it so bitterly about how they will fail you when you are in your element, cruising in the wind at top speed and riding uphill during a competition. Here's a candid look at the 50mm carbon clincher.

The dynamics of the Cayden (Australia) hand manufactured clincher for example is that it has a depth of 50 millimeters. The girth measures 28.3 millimeters at the middle, the width at the surface is 26.2 mm and 17.9mm from each bead core to the other. It works best when fitted onto wheels measuring 695 grams and 865 grams at the front and rear respectively. It needs valve extenders, preferably alloy, it is fitted with Japanese EZO Sealed Cartridge and will work with a maximum tyre pressure of 125 pounds per square inch.

It is excellent for triathlons according to Wheelsmith UK. To begin with, it is carbocyclic, making it less light than those without carbon bands around them, and those with smaller dimensions. It has a wide rim making riding more comfortable, it is aerodynamically efficient, with a sleek shape and can stand strong winds. Most amateur bikes have poor aerodynamics, (poor wind resistance)

The best speed to ride on is above 19 miles per hour to experience maximum pleasure when riding. Above all, it is easy to use and install.

The maximum rider weight they can support is 80-110 kg, because of carbon which is not as strong as aluminum. The wheels roll best on averagely flat surfaces with this type of clincher fixed. Braking often can damage the tires, rims and the clinchers consequently, so it is best to maintain a constant cycling speed and pattern. While riding, the heat generated because of friction can blow the tyre out, but heat dissipaters are added to eliminate possibilities of such incidents occurring.

Even so, a rider, whether recreational or competitive, needs to angle their body a certain way while riding and wear streamlined clothing to ease the cycling. With the 50 millimeter clincher added, an out of world riding experience is guaranteed. It is light, sleek, has great wind resistance, cross winds, to be precise, is generally fairly priced and can support most professional riders if not all, for races. What else would you look for?

Leo Tolstoy once responded to critics who were ridiculing him over learning how to ride a bicycle at the age of 67 by saying: "I feel that I am entitled to my share of lightheartedness and there is nothing wrong with enjoying one's self simply, like a boy."

So for whatever purpose you are seeking to buy a bicycle, weigh your options wisely. Decide whether you can cope with the downsides of this clincher on your wheels and ride your soul away or choose to pass up the chance of having an ecstatic cycling experience.
