It's because people have a very stiff frame, but have lower tire pressure. This gives a bike a very stiff feel when accelerating, but smooths out the bumps due to lower tire pressure.
That and the fact that people just spent several thousand dollars on a new bike and it's perfect...better than any bike they have ever ridden. Basically justifying their purchase, even though the ride isn't much different than a previous bike, but the fit may be a whole lot better this time.
