Nah, fake. I'm not nearly wealthy enough for a proper carbon SMP.
The thing with the Regale is it's not awful, I've done a century on it (not like the Arione that left me numb after 70 miles), it's just not quite right. Bit too soft and padded, I think. Nowhere near me that trials SMPs unfortunately, so it would be a case of waiting for one to come up at the right price. OTOH, I can afford a cambium. Hum.
The other thing is, is this all going to change as I lose weight anyway?
