I've been thinking about remounting tires on my 1987 Free Spirit Pinnacle. I've been running "poor-mans" rim strip (two layers of electrical tape.) However, it doesn't feel like enough as some of the spokes still feel somewhat sharp.
I've looked for 27x1 1/4" rim strips for this bike and could only find the cheap "rubber band" style rim strip, like what this bike had from the factory. Is it possible to get Velox or any other better rim strips for these rims? I've looked on Amazon and BikeTiresDirect and nothing in my size. The 700c solutions are way too narrow.
Any help would be appreciated.
