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:

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.
