So I have a Fango and a Limus (in clincher) and a Baby Limus in tubular. I know that I'd run the baby front and Limus rear on a really wet/ muddy course but I have no idea what conditions I could run the Fango and how I could pair with the other two? My standard wheelset are Grifo tubulars F & R.

ANyone got any experience with them at all?

The Fango is a great all around tire. I personally made the switch from griffo to fango for my go to "all conditions" wheelset (tubular). I like the larger volume casing and more aggressive side knobs. That said, given your current setup, I am not sure you really have much use for the clincher. I would pick the Limus for mud and the tubulars for everything else.
