  1. Hello,
    I am looking at GIPIEMME AERO RACE WHEEL- CLINCHER rims. Has anyone
    used these? What price did you pay? How good are they? Do they
    actually reduce drag?

    If you mean this one:
    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190135334337

    Then yes, it's a great wheel that really is faster aerodynamically.
    This is from the good old days of aero innovation when the very
    similarly designed Campy original Shamal was king. There are plenty
    of modern "aero" wheels that are slower.

    Actually 9 out of 10 modern "aro" wheels are slower.
