Yeah, I'm sad but so far the 30 Dugasts I've been testing just don't make me smile like my 32 Grifos. I was wondering if it was me or if in general "biggish" riders just usually don't go for 30's nowadays when they can run 32's. I was wondering if 30's were more from the days of frames w less clearance. ? Or are made for skinnier riders. I also do XC skiing and WEIGHT is a big factor.
Then there are the wheels. I've been using really old 36-spoke Arc-en-Ciels w my Grifos. Maybe the 28 spoke Cane Creeks that the 30 Dugasts are on are a lot STIFFER than my oldies. ?
