I've recently been working to optimize my hand and arm position, hands on the hoods, elbows a little below the hands and in. The gains are noticeable. My upgrade from Conti- 4-seasons to GP5000s? Yeah, that helped too, but I don't think as much.

Just my opinion.
I agree with you that it can be huge and the biggest for some. I'm specifically talking about what made the difference for me, as I stated I was already fairly well situated on my bike. I've picked up a significant amount of speed over the last year. Most of it due to training. Keep the engine running well.
