Steven Maasland asked: Can somebody please let me know more about Clement Paris Roubaix tubulars? If I am not mistaken, these are the juicy 'fat' ones. What type of tread pattern do they have? Would they make a correct looking tire for older bikes?

Paris-Roubaix tubulars fit between the Criterium series and the Campionato del Mondo. They run about 270 grams in the cotton casing, which was far more common during CR timeline, and almost always had a mixed tread pattern like the Criteriums. Profile was about 27 mm, and they would look very stylish on an older bike (besides riding like a dream.)
