Well, I still haven't been truly happy with this one. It showed it's got some speed but just hasn't dazzled me as expected. Last week I put a new set of Campagnolo Zonda wheels on this with the same GP 5000 700 x 25 I've had on the other wheels. From the start today if felt like a different bike, lighter and more "alive". Good pace the first 10 miles without really working at it and then had a headwind start up on my return leg that just continued to build. Had to fight the wind but didn't go all out. Managed to pull in a 19.2 mph avg despite the wind and had to slow several times for groups of riders in the way. The proof is in the pudding, Zonda's just make any bike feel better!
