Yes, very different rides. To compound the differences the Windsor is on my limit on the small size and the Paramount is right at my top end. In addition I had my lightest racing wheels (with high end Vitoria tubulars) on the Windsor and did the test ride on the paramount with the Nouvo Tipo wheelset with non racing tires. I have the NR wheels on now with GP 5000 tires. I’m hoping to get a ride in this week around work and travel.
