Probably a simple minded question (only just started using tubulars) but can a tubular be remounted after removing?

Any implications, warnings etc?

I'm hoping once used, with only a couple of hundred miles, the tires aren't "done".

I have a pair of reynolds that need truing (crash in a weekend race caused them to go out). Unfortnately the tires need to be removed from the rim to access the nipples.

thanks

if the glue hasn't been diried, you can put it straight back on. You usually need to add a bit more, though.

Put a new layer of glue on the rim. (the solvent in the glue will soften the old glue on the tire and the rim)
