So does a different wheelset actually make the bike faster?
I've been riding a Cross-Check for awhile, and for the life of me can't figure out why it's slower than my road bike. Both weigh about the same, both use 100psi slicks (23's / 25's on the road, 28's on the cross), rider position is similar. I'm stumped....
