For sure some people would be more likely to feel differences than others, but in talking about it, we realized that no comparison between the two is fair unless you control as many variables as possible. In your case, different brands and models, and time lapse between the two makes it hard to draw much in the way of conclusions - or at least you'd have more if you could ride both of those bikes on the same day. So we're hoping to shed a little light on that.
You are one person at least who isn't afraid to go carbon and then back again. I know there are more out there.
