I prefer my old vintage road bike over my new road bike

My old ride is a mid-80’s Peugeot 12 spd road bike. Love it, have easily ridden over 10k miles on it, pretty sure much more.

About 6 months ago I bought a new Scattante R670 at a great price at my local Performance shop. Complete spur of the moment thing, went in to buy a new frame pump (Yes, I realize I am the only person on this forum that has ever done that).

So I’ve been alternating riding both for the last few months and have come to realize I enjoy my old Peugeot over my new Scattante. Scattante rides great, was fitted, has nice components, nothing wrong with it just not as enjoyable. Actually faster on it. Don’t really want to sell it, but…

Has anyone been in a similar situation and how did you resolve it?

Thanks.
