>>2013933there are two competing forces in balance, Mechanical efficiency vs Aerodynamic efficiency.
the more towards Aerodynamic efficiency you go the less comfortable and usable the bike will be.
if your not already averaging 30 kph there is not much point to get a road bike.
my average speed on a bso is higher because i dont have to give a shit about hitting a bump or slamming the brakes on.
on a road bike every little bump or breeze has a way higher chance of wrecking your day.

>tiring to ride fast.this does not change much, its the same effort but now you are slightly more quick
