Love that bike.

Science and everything else aside are you able to tell any difference in terms of friction and or feel with the OSPW?

I'm really enjoying the Gunnar with 35mm slicks.

The Atlantic is quite so it was a great weekend for out playing in the woods -
Saturday: Off the beaten path. Amazing fall weather. Uncharted (probably private) roads on the OPEN.

Crappy weather today - I had to get out early and stayed close to home for single track'n and leaf peep'n on my new 429.

429 looks the business! So does the Open!

Yes. I can definitely tell a difference in feel and you will as well after a few pedal strokes. The pedal stroke just seems more fluid. You don't notice this with a normal RD cage until you try the OSPW. Give it a try, it will make more sense. As for watts. IDK about that but it feels good so does that transfer to higher watts?
