I can't think of a more PRO piece of gear than a Campy Ghibli disk wheel.

Great stuff Freddy. Keep it coming!

Didn't know the very PRO, PRO Race 3 came in tubular with an Italian trad pattern. Hmm.

Nice, finally something I use the pro's use too - Michelin Pro tires.

So the Pro2 definitely looks like a tubular... but is the Pro3? It looks authentic to me.

The PRO2 in the picture is probably a Vittoria (right?) dressed up as a Michelin. I'm fairly sure that Michelin does not make a tubular. Michelin sponsored teams need a tubie for TT's, so Michelin farms out a few Vitt's badged as Pro2's. Plus the tread pattern gives it away.
Right, Freddy?

Michelin had tubulars about 10 years ago (mabe by Wobler). Talk about PRO: Michele Bartoli in an Asics kit tearing up the Spring Classics on his Carrera Hercules with unlabeled Campangolo Bora wheels and Michelin tubulars.

Yes, the PRO3 is a clincher and the PRO2 is a Vittoria tubular, right down to the made in Thailand. - RF
