My Langster was my first SS. It came with 23s/aluminium frame. I thought it was comfortable until I got the Globe2 with 28s/steel frame.
The Globe2 is much more comfortable riding under similar conditons but is noticealbly slower....but maybe its just me and the different gear I ride in depending on the bike of choice.

I started pumping 100psi on the Langster and while it feels "softer" its still a bit harsh. May have to try a pair of 25s.
