Does wheel depth affect comfort?
Hi all.
In Jan I got a nice carbon bike, and shortly after some china-carbon deep 88mm wheels. Aero and stiffness are good right? well, i'm starting to find that my bike is a bit too stiff for the type or riding I do. Its more of a crit racer and i'm more of a distance/touring guy.
I've been thinking of selling my 88mm wheels and buying something in the 30-60mm range. ( the wind blowing the 88's is also why i'm thinking of downsizing ) but when the road is smooth, they are amazing.
I'm wondering if going to a shallower profile would be any more forgiving than the deep ones I have.
