I have a Serotta Fierte with steel stays and was wondering if anyone had any input on how that bike compares to the fierte with the carbon stays. I'm not really looking to switch, just curious?

Thanks,
Jonathan

Have ridden all steel and steel w/carbon stays. There may have been a slight dampening effect with the carbon stays, but it was not obvious. You have a nice collection already. Don't fret about "upgrading".

i have not ridden the steel but love my steel/carbon Fierte. I ride with Zipp 101s with 25s and it is very plush.
