The wheels on my new bike feel dog slow...it's like pedaling through sand. They're not any heavier than my previous wheels, but daaaamn. Whenever I get up and mash it's like someone applied rubber cement to the tires. Could this be owing to stiffness? They don't feel like they flex a lot under acceleration. The tires are the same as my last bike, so that's ruled out, and the bike itself is about 5 lbs lighter than the last one. Why the fvck does it feel so slow?
Wheels in question are 32h Ambrosio Evolutions laced to Campy Centaurs. I'm pretty sure they're straight gauge spokes...Would a relacing help? Or maybe different rims?
