I agree for the thinwall Tygon.
What I miss on the thickwall Tygon (probably the same for the Clearflex) is the softness of the silicone tubing.
Silicone is really soft and bends incredibly well, but I hate it because it stains so quickly...

I think Tygon R-1000 is what I would prefer: All the qualities of Tygon R-3603 and the softness of silicone.
Unfortunately it's almost impossible to find (although DD sold it for a while, but I was too late: when I ordered they were already out of stock...)
