@bobjonkman<\/a> noticed someone asked (can't find the original Q)<\/p>

Q2a. Do you notice a difference in speed when using bikes with 700c wheels vs bikes with smaller wheels? <\/p>

Q2b. Why are wheel size naming conventions so confusing? (This one is rhetorical; feel free to just vent here \ud83d\ude05) <\/p>
