I think that the difference is or may well be the greater forward lean that seems to naturally allow extra power without -- dare I say it -- extra effort. Perhaps it's a combination of getting your butt back and your torso tilted forward, but I know that I feel "powerless", as in can produce little torque, when I sit upright. Quite possibly that is why upright roadsters have such slack seat angles? At any rate, when I "fall" into the hooks, the bike seems to pick up speed, as when I face a slight rise.
All that apart, nice build. My Fargo replaces it, and the big wheels seems to handle bumps and sand better, but I recall with pleasure the similar buildup of an older Diamond Back into a very sweet bike.
