Those rims were available in the 1990's. They are extremely durable but because the rim side wall is 1.5mm higher than others, they are a true bitch to get clincher tires on or off them. They should be goldish in color and have a white decal.

A search of the archives revealed no info, so I turn to the great collective for advice. Does anyone have knowledge of Fiamme Explorer 700C clincher rims? I "inherited" two NOS pairs. One pair silver and one pair dark ano'd, with splashy decals.

Thanks in advance.
