I see it as this.
The S10 is better everywhere, but nothing in particular leading to the same RELATIVE feel. Just works. No RELATIVE advantage. No SINGLE big improvement to hang a hat on. Just IMPROVEMENTS everywhere. Over what I remember the Wee to be like. So until you jump back on the Wee you just get the feeling it's not much different.
When I jumped back on the Vee after riding the S10 for a while it was really obvious what I was taking for granted. Suddenly the brakes, suspension, refinement, handling were all a bit off, (The handling not so much, just different) but all by similar amounts.
All I could say from Memory was the Wee was easier off road than the Vee and the S10 is easier off road than the Vee, but as the terrain became worse the Wee suspenders would start to protest rather loudly, The Vee not so much much but it couldn't cope with the really rough stuff like the S10 can.
All fairly pleasing considering the increase in weight.
