I wonder if there is a correlation of people who don’t care about having the lightest or most aero bikes and wheels IRL are the same ones in game that don’t care?
I don't know. I ride vintage steel in real life and on my trainer for Zwift. In game, I ride the best bike that I have for the particular course I'm racing (JRA rides, I just stick with the Tron). Since I don't race in real life, I ride the bike I have. Getting the best bike possible in the game only costs me time and sweat, so I'm all about the diminishing returns there.
