The Pinarello was purchased with pro 4 tires that I ran until they wore out. Replaced them with Vittoria Corsa G+ at my usual 110 psi. Decided to try 120PSI to 125 psi the 130. Huge difference in ride quality at the higher pressure! I was shocked.
An earlier improvement was replacing the crashed 1971Motobecane Le Champion with a 1983ish Colnago Superissimo. felt like I was flying.
