Kushan: Any idea why you were slower on the CF bike, which I assume was lighter than any Rivendell model?
I realize that the factors making one bike slower or faster than another, let alone those affecting comfort, are hugely varied, but it's certainly a topic that interests me, since several of the fastest* bikes I've ridden were among the heavier ones. *Repeated ease of pushing a higher gear in the same conditions.
