Specialized Diverge: Smartweld vs. Carbon
Has anyone ridden the Smartweld and Carbon Diverge frames back to back? I've read some outstanding reviews of the other Smartweld models. BikeRadar says the SmartWeld is 3% more compliant than a Roubaix SL4 and the Carbon 6%. Those figures must have come from Specialized. At least as compliance goes that's a shockingly small difference. I'm wondering about any real world impressions from anyone that's ridden both.
