Hi.
This is abit of an odd problem but I need some light shedding on it.
Basically, I've built up my winter bike, and the problem is, the winter bike feels significantly slower than my summer bike, it feels as if the winter bike takes allot longer to spin up and when you get going it slows down like a lead weight.
Here is the specs of both bikes.
CAAD9
105 Groupset, R700 Chainset, R550 wheels, Michelin Krylion tyres
Genesis Aether:
105 rear mech, breaks, Tiagra shifters, Ultegra front mech, R700 chainset, Mavic Aksium wheels, Vittoria Topazio Pro tyres (never heard of these, anyone had any experience with them?)
Has anyone got any idea what it could be? My Genesis is abit heavier and does have full mudguards but from my experience mudguards dont slow the bike down and the weight should make no difference. It's really bugging me.
Thanks
Will.
