Sam,

I bet the larger (correct) frame size puts you in a better position for how you 
ride. I’m with you, a bike doesn’t need modern bells and whistles to ride well.

[RBW] Old school 10 speed

2020-11-11 Thread Sam Perez
My old school 10 speed bike ( allthough definitely too big for me) rides
better than some modern bikes. I don't know of it's the frame geometry or
components.  With a 42 up front and maybe 28 in the back i claimed hills
with less perceivable effort... Could it be the frame? Or the 10 speed? It
weighs as much as a fully fendered custom rando bike with bells and
whistles.

Any one weigh in on why my old 10 speed seems to glide?
