As per how do they ride - Davey of course faster, more agile and comfortable due to being 20y younger. Russ is surprisingly nimble too, perhaps let down by it's 26" wheels and heavy tyres, so plan is to swap with 700c and better rubber, although will keep originals at hand. If anything is a 'let down' is the usual braking effort, as with all the old bikes....a reason you must be tad bit more alert when riding these, especially if wet
