Typo Twizz? That's de da da movement or La de da movement...in France.

I did not ride them however a teammate handed me two Deda tubulars to glue onto his TT wheels...which I did over objections as in "these feel like crap". Sorry, not mincing words tonight. I know what a good tubular feels like and these should not go on a race bike. Sorry I don't have the exact model...they cost him about 60 clams apiece. For that kind of Lu you could have one of several much nicer tubulars. Hope that helps. Dang, hope I didn't offend.

It sure helps, TT. Thank you, bro. Besides, imho Deda tubies might be hot if made of aluminum. Hmmm...

I am not sure, but I thought that last year I saw some higher-end Deda tubulars which in fact looked very nice. They were very supple and looked to be as good as the Veloflex Criterium. But I never rode them and the guy I know who has them doesn't ride them either. So I can't say for sure, but there may be more than one level of Deda tubular.
