    Hello,

    I have tubulars that have been mounted for about five years and the = glue seems to fine &
    holding. Is there a recommended time for = re-glueing the tubulars as a matter of course? Or
    just ride them until = the glue no longer holds?

    Hopefully the moment you discover that the glue is no longer good, you will not be riding
    at the time.

    Re-glue them.

    I'd deflate the tire and give it a pull now and then to make sure it's holding. One thing to worry
    about is that the glue probably isn't soft enough to stick to a replacement tire if you have a flat.
