Strengths: No tubes, therefore no pinchflats off-road
Good durabilityWeaknesses: A bit expensive (I got them on sale)
Tricky to install on certain rims
on the heavy side (395g), but no tubesBottom Line: I've been using Tufo tubular clinchers on my cyclocross bike for over a year. I've had 2 sets of the Prestige CX tires for off-road use and have been very happy with them. As I also commute on my CX bike I got a second wheelset and threw the Pro Diamonds on in hopes they would last longer on the road, but still be able to handle the occasional off-road detour. So far I've been impressed with these tires. They've last much longer than the Prestige on the road (~2000 mi and still strong) and are pretty good off-road despite the complete lack of knobbies. They're tricky to install the first few times, though these were much easier to install than my Prestige tires on other wheels (not sure if it was a tire or rim thing). I've had good sucess with the sealant as well. I've pulled a few full-sized nails out of both tires, added sealant (you'll need a tool to take out the stem core), pumped them back up (not too high until the sealant sets), and am still riding them today.
