I think you should have stressed in the video that using an unglued tubular is NEVER advised. Basically the video is kind of irresponsible in my opinion. It doesn't take an "armchair expert" to figure this out, it's common sense. Can it be done?... sure, a lot of things can... but you should have stressed the use of extreme caution if you're forced to do so... or better yet, just never have made the video. So now there could be some new tubular user running around saying "No, I don't preglue my spares, that's a myth that you need to... I saw it in a video online". And whatever your intent may or may not have been, that's the message that some will undoubtedly take away.
I think you'd have to be pretty stupid to not apply glue to your tubs. Everyone I have ever known in cycling knows that you have to glue tubs.
It's just to make the point that the pressure in the tyre pushes the tyre hard against the rim. Some people think it doesn't. Just a simple demonstration.
But OK, I'll add a card that makes the point, just in case any sub 50 IQ's are watching.
Did you know that there's a video out there showing how to get a headphone socket in an Iphone 7? You drill it with a 3.5mm drill. Believe it or not, some people have done just that.
