    Hi looking for some help and information if possible.

    I recently bought second hand tubulars with continental competitions on. I have no experience of tubular tyres but was told about revosealant and vittoria pitstop. Can this be used on tubulars?
    Should it be used prior to ride or to repair puncture and does it affect ride?

    I have used this with great success on tubs.

    You need to find where the leak is from.
    A small pun prick/ hole and a sealant should do it.
    A cut and it's probably for the bin.

    It works well most of the time. But I have seen sealant actually seal the valves as well, so pumping or letting the air out to take the wheels on a plane is a challenge. So, don't use too much sealant.
