The way they go over bumps at speed in the turns is where some of the higher end frames shine like a bright star.

I guess that is what I am trying to get my head around- The numbers should work, but the overall experience doesn't make sense, and I don't know how to make a prediction based on it.
For example- the only real difference between my BMC and Tarmac is the wheelbase, yet, I cannot sprint on the BMC with any power, which seems counterintuitive. I would think with a tighter triangle and stiffer build- it would be opposite.
