Absolutely, plus the seat on the mountain bike had a big spring under it(like 1" by 5") so I think I was losing some of the energy I was expending on each pedal through that spring. The new road bike weighs in at nearly half of the old mountain bike at 24lbs and 46lbs respectively, I'd imagine that has to be a contributing fact as well, no?
