A shy person asked:
Quoted message said:Will newer 700c tubular's fit on older (1970's) 27" tubular wheels?
Yes and no.
Yes it will fit.
No because there's actually no sucha thing as a '27" tubular'--that's
some sloppy terminology that used to be current. All normal tubulars
are the same size, rim diameter is the same as 700c clincher.
