  • Okay, well maybe not so devastating then. I'm not a racer at all I just like that zippy, forward momentum feeling I'm not getting now form the Pinarello. I'm fine with my just slightly lighter no-name Aelle thing.

    Wheelset is the thing here.

    Are those hubs you are using cup and cone ? Swap them out for a modern sealed bearing set of wheels even low end Fulcrum 7s or Mavics will do, shod them with some decent ply open tubs (clinchers) and the difference is night and day.

    Back in the day Mavic 501 hubs were the sweetest rolling in my opinion. The change from block to cassette did for them unfortunately.
