I know there are a million debates about 750c vs 650c so I apologize if this brings up the same arguments.

I was previously riding a 47cm 1500 WSD and LOVED IT. LOVED IT. It was my first road bike and you know, you never forget your first. I sobbed like a baby when I finally sold her this week. Call me silly, but it was like losing a buddy. It was sooooo hard...

But the reason I sold her was to upgrade. And now I'm a proud owner of a 47cm 5000 WSD.

So my conundrum is this: On the 1500 WSD the LBS installed 650c wheels which I was very comfortable with. I ride with a racing club on the weekends and even did my first crit on these wheels against girls who rode on 700c. So it's not about the bike...or wheels for that matter...

But now on my 5000, it comes standard with 700c wheels. I test rode her today and it felt SO HIGH!!! But otherwise, I didn't feel uncomfortable.

I guess what I'm asking is, shouldn't I feel really strange on these 700c wheels? I wonder if it's my infatutation with the new bike that has clouded my ability to assess how the bike really handles...

Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
