Just curious, mtb vs road bike over a set course.

I swapped knobbles for semi slick tyres and ran the new tyres at 100psi on the back and 85 on the front, raised the seat up half an inch, and ditched one water bottle, and a heavy cable and lock, on my WDS BSO, and gained an average 45 seconds to a full minute on the same route under the same conditions. even little changes can make a difference.

I,m hoping to pick up a bit lost speed by up-teething my bike from a 48chainring to a 54
its still a tourer , just won,t to extend my range.
