At 14 you're not seeing much aerodynamic advantage, yet you're using different muscles. If you add any hills, the (likely) heavier V-Rex will slow you down. The faster you get, the more advantage you're going to see in the V-Rex over your road bike. On a long downhill you'll clearly see the V-Rex coast past everything except a tandem or another bent.
