Must be nice roads in Tallahassee. 80 to 110 is huge.

Modern race bikes are harsher than vintage Columbus or Reynolds with low tension low profile wheels. Wider tires at lower pressure can smooth the modern race bike’s ride. I don’t have any carbon or aluminum bikes but I do notice a difference between vintage steel and modern OS and OOS ceteris paribus.
