The title / post-meta styling is an improvement, I agree. As for the body test—what OS / browser / etc. is that?
Edit: I ask because, from what I've seen, Fira Sans is more readable on more platform/browser/device combinations than Concourse, as a body text font. In this case it's closer to the opposite… let me ask you this: how much of the difference between the two versions you screenshotted, for you, is made by the body text size, as distinct from the typeface per se?
Might as well go with a bang.
