Paul- Does anyone else have this experience, and, if so, what tires
would you
recommend for Mavic CXP21 rims that would fit on my Bianchi? BRBR

"Ruote convenzionali costruite eccezionalmente bene"

Tufo Elite Diamond LPS. 28 mm. Expensive, but very puncture resistant.
It exists both for clincher and tubular.
I have even used them for of road completion (on a hybrid with no
suspension)

I have a 1999 Bianchi Veloce, which I love. I only ride on the road
(recreational, no racing) using Michelin Super Comp 700x23c. ]

I've had two flats recently (from extremely small pieces of glass). Also,
I've had to dismount and walk my bike through unexpected road construction
zones, which seem to be everywhere.

Where I live, there is so much road construction, residential
construction,
commercial construction, gravel paving and road debris (broken glass,
stones, dirt, and gravel), that I think I should give up my "racing" tires
and go to bigger tires with heavier tread to negotiate all these
obstacles.

Does anyone else have this experience, and, if so, what tires would you
recommend for Mavic CXP21 rims that would fit on my Bianchi?

Thanks,
