Problem with Gipiemme Grecal Parades
I have started getting flats from my tubes extending down thru a deformed rim strip in to the hole that
is on the opposite side from the spoke. Any recommendation on rim strips to fix this. And no, changing wheels is not an option this year

Yea Velox, or similar cloth or the new snap in rim strips from Ritchey or Specialized are much better than the stock rubber deals. Or if you want to go weight weenie go for the Velo plugs.

But just about every bike shop on the planet should have Velox in stock.
