INSIDE FELT At Felt, our mission is simple: To design, develop and deliver the best bicycles in the world. Period. Our roots go back more than 20 years, to the man whose name appears on the downtube. It all started in the late 1980s when Jim Felt, an ace motocross mechanic at the time, designed and built a triathlon bike for motocross star Johnny O’Mara. Johnny was competing in triathlons for training and he asked Jim to build him a new tri bike. The first Felt bike was a revelation. A competitive age group triathlete himself, Jim had a distinct vision of how he could improve on the current designs. He took great care to optimize the rider’s position for aerodynamics. Johnny started winning, and before long Jim was building bikes for many of the world’s top triathletes. Since then, the Felt brand has grown well beyond its racing roots, but the guiding principle remains the same. Every Felt bike – road or off-road, high-end performance to entry-level recreation – is meant to make the cycling experience the best it can be. Whether climbing the steepest peaks of the Tour de France, bombing singletrack trails, racing a first triathlon or commuting to work, each promises uncompromised performance, comfort and efficiency. Ten years after he built that first triathlon bike, Jim wanted 1991, 92, 93, 94:

to expand and make his bikes available to more riders. Fortunately, Bill Duehring and Michael Müllmann came along to join the stage. Bill, a bike industry veteran, wanted to be part of a company that could capitalize on his years of product development experience and strong relationships with suppliers all over the world. Michael was running his own successful distribution company in Europe. It was easy for the three to agree on a direction because they had the same goal: a bicycle brand dedicated to quality and technology. Jim brought a name, design experience and athlete relationships. Bill had broad-based product development knowledge and vendor connections. Michael had the experience in distribution. A bicycle company had never been established with so much experience from day one. The day Felt incorporated, it had more than 70 years combined experience developing, manufacturing and selling high-quality bicycles. “We don’t want to be the biggest bike company in the world, just the best,” a maxim often uttered by Jim, Bill and Michael. Over the last decade, Felt has grown into one of the world’s most respected cycling brands by staying true to its principles. In engineering, product development, sales, marketing and customer service, the same underlying values that sparked

The products speak for themselves. From Felt’s innovative manufacturing processes including InsideOut Internally Optimized Molding and Dynamic Monocoque Construction, to breakthrough product design such as the FAST suspension and the Bayonet 3 Steering System, Felt is constantly seeking to push the technology envelope. The world’s fastest UCI legal time trial bike, the DA, has dominated the international time trial and triathlon circuit. The Edict full-suspension mountain bike also had a spectacular entrance to competition, taking on the proving grounds of UCI Elite XC racing. The TK1, which was first raced on the 2008 Beijing Olympics, has been updated for 2012 and will compete at the Olympics in London this year. This year, Felt is introducing the FX Series cyclocross bike, a worldclass carbon fibre platform that is significantly lighter and stiffer than Felt’s previous cyclocross bikes. The TK1 that delivered Sarah Hammer to multiple World Championships has also been refined and is now available in either a Sprint or Endurance configuration.

DESIGN METHODOLOGY WHEN FELT INTRODUCES A NEW BICYCLE, ITS DEBUT COMES AT THE END OF A LONG, RIGOROUS DEVELOPMENT PHASE. FROM INITIAL CONCEPT TO FINISHED PRODUCT, THE PROCESS CAN TAKE YEARS TO COMPLETE.

The first step is a lot of dialog. Between Felt-sponsored teams and athletes, engineers and product designers, there is never a shortage of ideas (and opinions). It’s a roundtable process guided by a certain set of objectives. Before the engineering begins, the precise goals must be clarified. Once they are, the real work begins.

The final phase of our development occurs when a first mold is developed and prototype frames are made. With carbon fibre frames, we experiment with different lay-up configurations and different blends of material. We then perform static load and stiffness tests in the lab to gauge the strength-to-weight and stiffness of the samples; our own internal strength standards are higher than even the most stringent U.S. and European government regulations require. Felt inspects the prototype models closely for manufacturing tolerances, surface finish and alignment among other details. Finally, the prototypes are ridden to make sure they deliver the right ride quality.

Felt engineers design every frame and fork from scratch using sophisticated CAD software that allows them to specify every dimension and shape of each tube. Components such as derailleurs, wheels and brakes can be fitted to 3-D models to check fit and function before a single physical sample is created. The engineers determine the handling geometry as well as the dimensions for each size frame, and this is where a bicycle’s character begins to take shape. Aerodynamics and stiffness can be manipulated through tube shape and wall thickness. For full-suspension designs, this is the point at which the linkage is designed and wheel path is determined. Also, this is the phase in which some of Felt’s most iconic designs, including Equilink™ suspension and the Bayonet 3 Steering System, have been conceived. In designs where aerodynamics play a factor, the 3-D solid model is analyzed through Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software. Tube profiles can be reshaped and refined dozens of times before any sort of prototype is made. By the time the bike enters the prototype phase, the design has been through hundreds of hours of analysis. Wind-tunnel testing then presents the opportunity to refine the design a bit further. Small tweaks are made to finalize things before the manufacturing molds are created. World Championships, bronze – Michellie Jones

2001:

Different Felt bikes have varying design cycles. Full-suspension and aerodynamic models spend a great deal of time in development before a first prototype is made. Carbon fibre road bikes and hardtails, on the other hand, will go to prototyping much sooner but stay in that phase much longer. Getting the blend of materials just right – in order to find that lively feel while maintaining strength, stiffness and low weight – can require many prototypes. The stamp of approval comes from Felt teams and athletes. If the bike is up to the standards of the very best in the world, it’s time to bring it to market. By taking a flexible development approach based on the particular needs of each bicycle, rather than applying the same approach to all of them, Felt is able to focus its efforts on the most critical elements of each model. There are other ways to develop a bicycle, such as methods that are faster, cheaper and less expensive. But that’s not the Felt way. Though our method takes longer than others, it allows us to focus on the quality in oder to produce a better bicycle.

CARBON FIBRE & FELT SUCCESSFULLY USED IN AEROSPACE, MOTOR SPORTS AND OTHER APPLICATIONS FOR YEARS, CARBON Fibre IS ALSO CONSIDERED THE ULTIMATE MATERIAL FOR HIGH-PERFORMANCE BICYCLES. WITH AN INCREDIBLY HIGH STRENGTH-TO-WEIGHT RATIO, CARBON FIBRE IS AN ENGINEER’S DREAM. IT’S LIGHTER THAN ALUMINUM AND STRONGER THAN STEEL, AND A PROPERLY CONSTRUCTED CARBON Fibre FRAME CAN PRODUCE AN INCREDIBLE RIDE QUALITY THAT’S STIFF, AGILE AND EFFICIENT.

Grading Carbon Fibre Raw carbon fibre is made with extremely thin, strong fibres. These fibres come in many different grades – or in engineering terms “modulus” – based on the material’s strength and stiffness. The higher the grade, the more it costs. Higher grades of carbon fibre have a higher tensile modulus and are therefore stiffer. This is a good thing. However, highgrade carbon fibre can also be trickier to work with because of the need to maintain a balance between stiffness, strength and durability. It’s that balance that Felt always strives for. A frame that’s simply lighter, or stiffer, isn’t necessarily better. The goal is to balance all the elements that make a bike perform best when it hits the road or trail. In addition to being a challenge to optimize, higher-grade carbon fibre is also more expensive. For these reasons, many bicycle manufacturers steer clear of the material. But Felt believes the investment is worthwhile. Starting with the best materials available is essential to achieving the ride quality our engineers and professional athletes demand.

Making the Frames There are many ways to use carbon fibre in bicycle manufacturing. At one end of the spectrum is an age-old method called lug-and-tube. This is the way steel-tube frames have been built for more than a century. With this method, carbon fibre tubes are bonded to lugs, which can be made from aluminum, titanium or carbon fibre. The tubes are inserted into the lugs and the joint is glued together.

2003:

The lug-and-tube technique typically uses an overlap of extra material and therefore results in a frame that’s heavier than necessary. This type of construction also produces a “flatter” ride feel because it requires many individual parts and overbuilt intersections. At the opposite extreme is the technique used by Felt: Dynamic Monocoque Construction. We start with sheets of unidirectional fibre (imagine long, straight, black hair). These sheets can be made from fibres with different levels of modulus (60T, 40T and 30T), depending on the intended usage of the bike. They can also be mixed and matched. All of Felt’s carbon fibre bikes feature a blend of materials, which is why we call them UHC, or Ultra Hybrid Carbon. There are three levels of UHC frames: UHC Ultimate+Nano, UHC Advanced and UHC Performance. Each targets different types of riders and serves different goals. For instance, is the bike aimed at competitive racers who favor light weight and pure performance over everything else? Or is it a sprinter’s bike, built for someone who prefers additional stiffness at the cost of a few grams? The different types of carbon fibre can also be precisely positioned in the frame to take maximum advantage of their specific properties. For example, stiffer fibre plies may be used in areas of peak stress such as the bottom bracket shell and down tube while higher-strength fibre plies are used in areas particularly susceptible to impact.

INSIDE FELT Once the perfect blend of materials is established through CAD modeling, prototype testing and athlete feedback, the final recipe is documented for production – this is called the “lay-up schedule.” The lay-up schedule details the types of materials and exactly how they are assembled to produce the frame, outlining the exact order and orientation of all the individual carbon fibre sheets, or “plies,” which are assembled by hand to create the frame. These plies come “pre-impregnated” with resin, and each is meticulously cut to the shapes needed to construct the frame. The plies get strategically laid onto specially shaped internal molds, and once this process is complete, the material is placed into a symmetrically split CNC-machined mold (like a waffle iron). The mold halves are then closed and locked, and the frame gets formed with a precise amount of pressure and heat. With high-end performance bikes such as the F1, DA or Edict, Felt takes the process a few steps further. One of Felt’s key technological breakthroughs for 2011 is a proprietary molding process called InsideOut – Internally Optimized Molding. By placing specially designed molds inside the frames during this process, Felt is able to eliminate any excess material inside the carbon fibre tubing. “These inserts really clean up the inside of the frames,” says Felt engineer Ty Buckenberger. “The bottom bracket and other junctions are all nice and clean with no excess material inside.” Felt also employs Dynamic Monocoque Construction to form and then join the individually molded sections of its performance frames. Using this process, Felt engineers can optimize every section of the frame by molding them individually. Combining Dynamic Monocoque Construction with InsideOut Internally Optimized Molding allows Felt to have precisely sized internal molds for different tubing sizes and shapes. “Obviously the shapes we’re working with for the front triangle are much different than those of the seatstay,” says Buckenberger. “Dynamic Monocoque Construction allows us to really focus on making every single section of the frame the best it can be.” Finally, the frame sections are joined using a special co-molding technique. The individual sections are bonded together and then cowrapped. Processes like InsideOut and Dynamic Monocoque Construction are considerably more complicated and expensive than other methods. But the ride quality and unparalleled strength make it worthwhile.

FELT CARBON FIBRE GRADES Felt currently uses three types of its own specific blends of carbon fibre: UHC Ultimate+Nano, UHC Advanced and UHC Performance.

UHC Ultimate+Nano The absolute finest blend of frame material in the world. With a cutting-edge construction technique and Nano resin system, UHC Ultimate+Nano frames maximize the amount of high modulus material that can be used. The secret is the proprietary resin matrix. With most carbon bicycle frames, standard epoxy resin is used as a binder to hold the individual fibres together in their desired locations and orientations. But Felt’s Nano Tech actually enhances the performance of the frame at the molecular level with a stronger bond between the individual fibres. X-Games BMX Park, silver – Scotty Cranmer

2006:

This system results in improved impact strength, but it also enhances the performance characteristics of the bike. How? By giving Felt engineers more options. With improved strength and impact resistance, they can use more high modulus material to add stiffness without the frame becoming too fragile. The thinner walls, improved stiffness and responsive ride quality are all results of the Nano Tech resin. Felt could have chosen to shave a few more grams off the UHC Ultimate+Nano frames, but with the bikes already below minimum competition weight, they instead increased the impact strength and stiffness. So Felt’s stiffest and lightest frame is also incredibly durable.

UHC Advanced The highly refined threads of UHC Advanced have a higher fibre to resin ratio, which results in a lightweight, lively frame that’s perfect for competitive riders and racers. Similar to the way metal frames gain ride quality and liveliness with thinner tube walls, UHC Advanced fibres allow designers to use thin-walled tubing. The end result? UHC Advanced frames are 20% lighter than UHC Performance frames, while remaining just as stiff and strong. Working with UHC Advanced fibres does present certain engineering challenges. For instance, a fibre with more stiffness and strength is also more brittle. Though capable of sustaining massive loads, these fibres are less tolerant of tight-radius bends in the manufacturing process. So thoughtful design is critical. Felt engineers are careful to include as few tight bends as possible, which not only prevents the fibres from fracturing during manufacturing but also guarantees that the material yields the lightest possible frame.

UHC Performance Felt’s UHC Performance material clearly illustrates why carbon fibre is ideal for performance bicycle frames. Consider the facts: It’s eight times stronger than 3/2.5 titanium, more than three times stiffer than 6061 aluminum and less than one-fourth the density of steel. And it can be formed into a wide variety of shapes and exhibits nearly infinite fatigue life. UHC Performance frames have that signature Felt feel, plus unmatched durability. They are perfect for riders who want a performance bike that’s strong enough to last for years. The UHC Performance materials used in Felt’s entry-level carbon road race bikes are on par with many manufacturers’ top-of-the-line models. There’s a reason Felt’s less expensive carbon bikes are so evolved. Just a few years ago, the same technology was used for Felt’s top-of-the-line F1 SL frameset. So today’s F5 incorporates all the advantages of a bike that, not too long ago, was the flagship pro road racing bike. Because of Felt’s commitment to advancing its carbon fibre technology, you can experience a level of performance previously unheard of at this price.

BAYONET 3 DEVELOPED TO MEET THE STRINGENT NEEDS OF WORLD CHAMPION TIME TRIALISTS AND TRIATHLETES LIKE KRISTIN ARMSTRONG, TERENZO BOZZONE, MIRINDA CARFRAE AND ANDI BÖCHERER, THE ALL-NEW BAYONET 3 FORK PICKS UP WHERE THE BAYONET 2 LEFT OFF.

L ike its predecessor, the Bayonet 3 is all about aerodynamics and handling precision. By using an even narrower steerer tube, which is now housed inside a bearing with an inner diameter of just 19mm, Felt engineers were able to reduce drag even further over the Bayonet 2. And because of its innovative design – which pairs the external steerer tube with the teardrop-shaped headtube – the Bayonet 3 offers not only superior aerodynamics without compromising stiffness or handling, but is approximately 18% lighter than the Bayonet 2. ther updates to the Bayonet 3 include reshaped fork blades, O which feature a more gradual taper for significantly improved aerodynamic performance. And compared to the Bayonet 2, the Bayonet 3 has a lower stack height, which allows riders to achieve a more aero position – something Garmin-Transition pros required for maximum efficiency. esigned to optimize the performance of the all-new DA time D trial/triathlon frame, the Bayonet 3 was developed through a combination of advanced Computational Fluid Dynamics computerized modeling and actual wind tunnel development. While many manufacturers employ after-the-fact wind tunnel testing, Felt takes it a step further by utilizing wind-tunnel analysis to develop the product. The Bayonet 3 features a clever adjustable stem system that’s capable of stem lengths from 90mm all the way to 145mm and everything in between. And each is adjustable in angle from –20 degrees (horizontally) to 105 degrees.

I nstallation of the Bayonet 3 Steering System is no more complicated than a regular fork. A simple video tutorial on feltbicycles.com can walk mechanics through the process. More aerodynamic. Stiffer. Sleeker. More adjustable. One ride with the all-new Bayonet 3 is all you’ll need to convince yourself that no other fork on the market comes close.

BAYONET 3 – THE SUMMARY • Bayonet 3 is the best of all worlds: more aerodynamic than a standard 1-1/8” steerer, stiffer than a tapered steerer, and faster than anything else in the world. • By moving the narrow steerer tube outside of the head tube, Felt engineers created a system that’s faster and more aerodynamic yet also stiffer. The narrow leading edge of the Bayonet 3 fork combined with the shielded head tube creates a slippery airfoil that decreases overall bike drag. And the system’s increased stiffness, more than 60% stiffer than a fork with a standard 1” steerer tube, dramatically improves overall handling. • With redesigned, tapered fork legs and a lower stack height for the stem, the Bayonet 3 is proven in wind tunnel tests to reduce a bike’s wind drag more than 10% compared to standard fork-and-stem combinations.

SUSPENSION MOST MANUFACTURERS EMPLOY ONE BASIC SUSPENSION SYSTEM TO HANDLE A WIDE VARIETY OF DUTIES – EVERYTHING FROM COMPETITIVE XC RACING TO AGGRESSIVE ALL-MOUNTAIN RIDING. THEY TAKE ONE DESIGN AND APPLY IT TO DIFFERENT BIKES BUILT FOR DIFFERENT PURPOSES BY MODIFYING THE REAR SHOCK AND LENGTH OF TRAVEL.

That’s one way to do it. But Felt engineers, accustomed to finetuning the designs of different bikes to meet precise performance goals, have taken an alternate approach; just as they wouldn’t accept using a road fork for a triathlon bike, they felt a lightweight XC racing bike has different suspension needs than a trail bike. That’s why Felt has two different suspension systems – FAST for competitive XC and Equilink™ for marathon, trail or all-mountain riding. Each is designed to optimize the bike it’s paired with. FAST places great emphasis on ultra low weight, integration with a carbon rear triangle and pedaling efficiency. Equilink™ delivers a supple, active feel for rugged terrain plus incredible traction and braking control. Both are designed to make every off-road ride the best it can possibly be.

FAST To meet the lofty standards established for the new Edict XC race bike, Felt created an entirely new suspension system called Felt Active Stay Technology, or FAST. Offering 100 millimeters of smooth, predictable travel, FAST delivers unmatched performance in a lightweight, race-ready package. FAST is about efficiency. It’s about soaking up the terrain and keeping your tyres on the ground for the improved traction and handling needed in XC racing conditions. The genius behind FAST is its simplicity. By creating a frame and suspension system that works in unison to achieve specific goals – namely, XC speed, control and efficiency – Felt engineers were able to pinpoint their efforts. FAST makes the most of Felt’s 70.3 World Champion – Andy Potts

considerable experience working with cutting-edge materials and construction techniques, and utilizes the design of the frame to optimize the bike’s overall suspension performance. “FAST suspension technology embodies a light, stiff carbon fibre rear triangle assembly that doubles as a secondary spring assist to the rear suspension,” says Felt suspension engineer Mike Ducharme. As Ducharme points out, one of the keys to FAST is the innovative rear stays. The carbon fibre seatstay and chainstay work together like a leaf spring, offering just enough flex to optimize rear suspension activity. The whole rear end is custom shaped and engineered to provide both a stable pedaling platform and a smooth trail feel. It helps keep your tyres on the ground when climbing or pedaling through smaller stutter bumps – situations where suspension affects traction – and adds just enough compliance to reduce fatigue over long efforts such as marathon or 24-hour races. FAST takes cues from the single-pivot suspension design that performance-minded XC riders favor because of light weight and reliability, and optimizes this tried-and-true system with a few new twists. It utilizes a set of carbon fibre stays that flex evenly throughout the suspension travel, providing performance characteristics that mimic much more complicated suspension systems – but without the extra weight and complexity. “This design not only eliminates the need for an additional pivot in the assembly, but also acts to hold the suspension at the

INSIDE FELT optimal ride/race geometry,” says Ducharme. “We were able to decrease the weight and increase efficiency by designing out unnecessary hardware and reducing unwanted suspension bob without sacrificing small bump compliance.” The stays are designed to be neutral (in their natural shape) at the “sag point” because that’s where the bike typically rests under rider weight. The shock spring is supplemented by the design and material of the rear stay, which acts as a leaf spring, stiffening the latter part of the suspension travel. The slight additional spring provided by the carbon stay helps keep the suspension sitting at the proper sag point, which reduces small inputs from the rider that would cause unwanted bobbing from the suspension. This design eliminates the need for a mechanical lockout or an overly damped shock that requires extra force to be “opened”. The end result of all this: minimized bob without any harshness.

The construction and mechanical aspects of the FAST system reveal an obsessive eye for detail. Every last fitting has been scrutinized and selected for durability and weight reduction. The two main pivots feature sealed cartridge bearings for smooth performance, and there’s a unique “link axle” system for the shock links that reduces weight by using less steel hardware and a hard anodized axle for the shock links’ bearings to roll on. A “DU” bearing (similar to what is found in shock eyelets) and titanium axle are used for the less-stressed seatstay pivot. Besides shedding precious grams, this pivot construction proved its durability in testing. Built specifically for the Edict Series, FAST is exactly what the XC racer, be it a short-track sprint fiend or an all-day marathon racer, demands in a bike.

EQUILINK

produce squat (suspension compression) or jack (suspension extension) when the rear brake is applied, either of which can disrupt how the rear wheel tracks the ground. With Equilink™, braking forces are directed down into the stay and are resisted by the long lever arm defined by the dropout pivot and lower suspension linkage. Apply the brakes and the Equilink™ rear end slows you down while keeping the wheel firmly planted on the ground. So Equilink™ effectively counteracts all of the negative forces acting on the system, thus leaving the rear suspension to absorb trail impacts of all shapes and sizes. Since the rear shock isn’t required to do double duty to produce a stable pedaling platform, we are able to tune the shocks to produce the plushest possible feel. Perfectly engineered suspension rates and a low-leverage design offer the same buttery ride quality on small, medium and big hits alike. Moreover, Equilink’s™ ever-so-slightly rearward axle path allows the rear wheel to move up and back to better absorb square-edged hits, yet is close enough to vertical that it doesn’t produce any noticeable pedal kickback. Equilink™ is also extremely tolerant of a wide range of shock settings as there is no single sweet spot. Add more pressure if you want a firmer feel or dial it back to soften things up. Either way, you still get the same superior pedaling performance. To keep the rear end of Equilink™-equipped bikes true and durable, Felt uses stiff carbon or aluminum rear triangles, cromoly thru-bolts, stainless steel hardware and oversized frame sections to eliminate any unwanted movement. Different suspension systems for different bikes. It’s not the simplest approach, but it is the most precise. And when it comes to performance, Felt won’t compromise.

This is the award-winning suspension system for Felt’s Virtue and Compulsion Series trail bikes. For riders ranging from marathon XC racers to those looking to tackle more aggressive terrain, the active yet efficient feel offered by Equilink™ is the perfect choice. Many suspension systems require the bike to have a solid rear triangle, but Equilink™ ties the upper and lower suspension links together so neither can move without affecting the other. Under power, chain tension tries to pull the lower link down while the other wants to pivot up. However, by connecting the two, those opposing forces merely create a bit of tension in the Equilink™ and effectively cancel each other out. Moreover, the Equilink™ is oriented nearly perpendicular to the direction of the chain, negating its effects even further. Think of it as a tug-of-war between equally matched foes. Each wants to go in their own direction but the rope keeps either from gaining any ground. As such, chain tension produces no suspension movement whatsoever and you rocket forward on the trail with maximum pedaling efficiency. Chain tension isn’t the only force at play here, though. As you accelerate, your body weight tends to move toward the rear of the bike, creating a suspension phenomenon commonly referred to as squat. The idea is simple: shift your weight rearward and you increase the load on the suspension, thus inducing movement. When this occurs, you’re wasting precious watts. Felt engineers solved this by tweaking the anchoring positions on the upper and lower links. After countless design iterations they settled on positions that cause the Equilink™ to tug just a bit harder on the upper link than on the lower. As a result, the system neutralizes the negative effects of both chain tension and weight shift. And what about braking effects? Poorly designed systems can

INSIDE FELT MAGAZINE TEST RESULTS Edict LTD – 3470 Kilometer Non stop testing Bike 8/2011, verdict: very good …speeding on your favorite trail with race proven equipment without worrying about servicing your bike every day? The Felt Edict LTD had to prove how hard you can abuse a lightweight fullsuspension over several months…. …there is nothing more fascinating than eating miles at high speed. That’s why I need a real efficiently working bike. Pedaling up and down rolling hills I can’t stand loosing a bit of energy. All the data spoke for the Felt. Aggressive geometry combined with minimum weight and premium components make it to an agile long distance sprinter. The problem: cycling at high speed all the time meant there was no time for maintenance. The testing started in winter. It went on through rainy grey in-between seasons months to the high milage marathon summer. I sped over rutty trails, fireroads, rolled through soft sticky mud. I changed gear relentlessly, the suspension had to eat hundreds of thousands of bumps and shocks. Following the rules of physics the bike should have fallen into pieces. But nothing happened…

F1 – Test: Top models Roadbike 10-11/2010, verdict: very good … a spectacular workhorse, because the new F1 has made a big leap forward compared to his predecessor! And also seen absolutely the F1 takes one of the top positions in the league of the lightweight top roadbikes. The complete bike weighs in at only 5650 g. The set with frame, fork and ahead set (size 58) weighs only 1196g. These numbers are the more impressive because stiffness in the head tube area (78 Nm/°) and the bottombracket area (108 N/mm) are suited for every rider without weight limit and the 850g-frame has potential even for heavy sprinters. Features you don’t find at framesets weighing much more. The F1 collected a lot of points here even before being challenged in the ride test. And the positive impressions grew – the top model didn’t show any remarkable weaknesses. Steering impulses come through agile and direct without any jittery feeling. Out of the saddle and at high speed the black speedster rolls stable and stays in line. Furthermore the riding position of the F1 is only a little bit stretched but still comfortable with a geometry which is inviting to attack.

Edict LTD – fastest bike in up- and downhills Test: Marathon fullsuspensions Bike 2/2011, verdict: very good Karl Platt, multiple winner of the Bike-Transalp and the Cape Epic “Felt, Ghost and Trek have top ranks on my personal list. While Felt and Trek convinced me with their chassis (...).” … the new Edict is a big surprise. Without exception all test riders loved the fast bike with his super responsive but effective suspension system … world champion Lakata says: “In uphills the Edict is my favorite bike. The rear works super sensitive without showing too much of a disturbing movement even with the damper in open position.”

F4 – Test: Carbon bestsellers price range 2.500 Euro Roadbike 5/2011, verdict: very good Felt hits the bullseye with his all new F-model. The top model earned top grades (RoadBIKE 01/2011), the F4 is one of the favorites in this test. Though using different carbon layers the affordable F4 shows top results in the lab test. On the road, the Felt seduces to sprint, rolls relaxed and stable, and comes with great steering prcision-ready to race! The riding position is still comfortable enough for epic rides. Despite the affordable pricing Felt does not “cheat” with any of the components – an impressive racy roadbike!

INSIDE FELT AR0 – best results in windtunnel tests Test: Aero roadbikes in the windtunnel and lab test Tour 2/2011, verdict: 1,9 …the AR0 looks the most like a true time trial bike as does the Kestrel. Lower and seat tube follow the contours of the wheels, the seat post enables two seat angles so you can use it as a triathlon bike. The concept is successful confirmed by the results of the windtunnel testing: at a wind angle of 10 and 20 degrees no other bike is faster… … the components with Shimanos Di2 group and the new 404-ZED-Tech-wheels by Zipp, running absolutely smooth (not so with the Cervélo) are a dream …

F75 – Best value for money Test: Roadbikes with Shimano 105 Tour 1/2011, verdict: 2,1 … a big surprise concerning value for money is Felt; the US manufacturer normally known for higher price ranges, delivers an aluminum frame at a challenging offer of 1.099 Euro which is equipped as good as the concurrency, looks great and is technically very good… … the all new „F75“: The frame is manufactured with advanced smoothwelding and a little bit on the heavy side but extraordinarely stiff, and with an astonishing comfortable flex at the saddle through the long extruded carbon seat post. Even more astonishing is the price tag which you normally only find at bikes from direct sale companies… the components definitely are better than average ….

Edict Team – Test: Racefullys Mountainbike 2/2011, verdict: very good Everyone from the MB-test crew was seduced by the Felt... understandable, the look of value and the blue orange colour details accelerate the heart beat. And after the first pedal stroke it gets even more intense. The Edict sprints easily, covers quickly distance and climbs even gnarly steep uphills easily because of its responsive rear suspension system which delivers a lot of traction ….

Nine Elite – Test: Hardtails Twentyniner Bike 1/2011, verdict: very good … the distance to the other bikes is obvious and measurable. The frame weighs only 1447g. Details like the spokes and wire caps in blue colour or the carbon frame guard give the Felt the special look. Test riders emphasized the comfortable and sporty riding position and the balanced character. The bike is more suited for uphills than downhills…

Virtue Pro – Test: fullsuspensions for long rides Mountainbike 3/2011, verdict: very good Options are a winner. The partly hydroformed muscle frame made of carbon and aluminum offers two travel options: 120 or 130mm which can be adjusted at the damper link. The stiffness at the head tube and BB areas is very good, in both criterias Felt takes #2… We loved the way the US bike transfers power without loss caused by the effective kinematics and the low front with a lot of pressure on the front wheel. In steep uphills riders can climb strongly because of the 74 seat angle and the no bobbing rear. With the balanced geometry and agile handling the Virtue loves downhills …

Six LTD – Test: Race-Hardtails Mountainbike 12/2010, Verdict: very good Carbon frames are not only technical beauties they can look just plain elegant. Proven by the fresh looking white-orange Six Ltd. The MB test crew also liked the intense momentum of the US bike…

EDICT Series

FOR UCI ELITE TEAMS LIKE FELT ÖTZTAL X-BIONIC, PERFORMANCE IS PARAMOUNT. To compete at the highest levels of the XC racing, pros demanded a no-frills carbon fibre full-suspension race bike. The challenge was ambitious: Felt sought to create the fastest full-suspension XC bike in the world. It took several years, much experimenting and many prototypes to achieve this goal, but the Edict has arrived. Designed to burn up World Cup courses and tame the most rugged, grueling marathon XC courses, the Edict Series brings a new level of refined Felt performance to the gritty, unpredictable world of off-road riding and racing. To meet the lofty standards established for the Edict, Felt created an entirely new suspension system specifically for this bike, and this bike alone. It’s called Felt Active Stay Technology. Offering 100 millimeters of smooth, predictable travel, FAST delivers unequaled suspension performance in a lightweight, race-ready package. True, Felt already has an award-winning suspension system in Equilink. But Felt engineers believe every performance bike deserves a higher level of analysis and engineering, and though Equilink offers the best solution for longer-travel XC and trail bikes, the highly specific demands of XC racing warranted a different approach. The genius behind FAST is its simplicity. By creating a frame and

EDICT Series

suspension system that works in unison to achieve specific goals – namely, unparalleled XC speed, control and efficiency – Felt engineers were able to pinpoint their efforts. FAST makes the most of the Felt’s considerable experience working with cutting-edge materials and construction techniques, and utilizes the design of the frame to optimize the bike’s overall suspension performance. The Edict’s carbon fibre seatstay and chainstay work together, offering just enough flex to optimize rear suspension activity. The whole rear end is custom shaped and engineered to provide both a stable pedaling platform and a smooth trail feel. It helps keep your tyres on the ground when climbing or pedaling through smaller stutter bumps – situations where suspension affects traction – and adds just enough compliance to reduce fatigue. The Edict’s front triangle is also constructed from carbon fibre, giving it the speed, efficiency and agility you need for the most challenging XC terrain. All Edict models are light and quickhandling with a stable, neutral feel that inspires confidence on steep, technical climbs, screaming descents and whatever else the trail throws your way. Every Edict model is outfitted with performance parts to make the most of its off-road capabilities. Faster, smoother, more fun than you ever imagined. That’s the Edict.


Fully Name: Paul van der Ploeg Nickname: “Thunder from Down Under” (recently acquired after the world cup Eliminator). Age: 21 How many van der Ploeg boys are there really? The final tally has been counted and the results show 5 (myself being the youngest and last attempt for a girl). Weight of your legs vs overall weight as determined by the Australian Institute of Sport: My legs weigh in at around 35kg+ and my total body is just under 90kg and dropping hopefully! Favourite movie: There are so many good movies to choose from. Maybe, The Lord of the Rings or on a lighter note, Getting Square a classic Aussie film. Best feeling you’ve ever had on the bike: Winning the World Cup Pro Sprint Eliminator in Pickering, England. Unbelievable race and to come out with the win was truly something I will never forget. Favourite bike in your stable: For climbing fast and smacking it around the XC track, The FELT SIX LTD. I have also just started riding the FELT EDICT LTD and I can see it becoming my all rounder because of how fast it is on the downhills. Why did you race the Bay Criteriums in Melbourne this summer in mountain bike shoes? Was it just because you could lift your bike over your head at the finish when you won? I had knee problems in the middle of last year and using the mountain bike shoes was the only way I could keep riding without pain. They also had the added bonus of showing the roadies a thing or two about how to celebrate a victory! Did you learn that trick from Rob Eva, no you probably didn’t, when he was doing that, you would have been six years old? Victory salutes should be spontaneous and spur of the moment emotions. I remember watching Jakob Fuglsang lift the bike over his head when he beat Nino Schurter in 2007 at the World Champs and always wanted to use this salute. Speaking of lifting your bike over your head, you recently got to do this on the world stage when you won the Pro Sprint Eliminator at Pickering, give us a quick run down of the quickest 1000 Euro you will ever make, the course looked mad: It is extremely hard to describe an experience like the one I had in the World Cup Pro Sprint Eliminator. It all happened so fast and was so unexpected. I went into the race just hoping to qualify, then I kept riding fast and winning my heats. In the final I was waiting to be overtaken by the other riders, but I managed to hold them off to the end. It was a very short race (1.5min-ish) which suited my

riding style and oversized body. I still can’t believe it happened and I’m just so happy to win such a world class race. How did you bounce back after the last Sprint Eliminator when Shurter the Hurter tried to intimidate you by putting you into the fence? Well in my first Sprint Eliminator in Switzerland Nino Shurter took me out after I passed him. I wasn’t super confident going into the world cup Eliminator. I was pretty concerned about getting caught up in a crash again, so my plan was to ride the race from the front to avoid the carnage…and it worked pretty well. Did you duke it out after the race? I talked to him after he took me out and he was pretty good about it. He understood he was in the wrong, but I don’t think he realised how annoyed I was at him. I was pretty angry after the race but when I was talking to him, I mellowed out a bit. I found it pretty hard to stay angry at a multiple world champion…he has a bit of an aura I suppose. Ok, now back to Australia, you had a few niggling injuries last year but these didn’t prevent you from having a pretty blinding summer, are you all under control now? I have been going OK in terms of injuries (touch wood). I still have a tear in my shoulder joint which means it can pop out at any time if you look at it the wrong way! If I keep it rubber side down (touch wood again) it should stay in its socket. The knee is feeling good and doesn’t seem to be giving me too many problems any more, now that I use my mountain bike shoes for everything. Now, for the readers of Enduro who have the pleasure of seeing you monster local enduro races from the Mont to the Duael, tell us what you enjoy about these sorts of races: I landed my first sponsorship deal with the FELT ENDURO TEAM, so enduros will always be special for me. I really enjoy going out and riding enduros with everyone. It is such a good atmosphere and so relaxed. A great way to get exposure for your sponsors as all types of riders can take part in the events. It is also loads of fun and really social - two things I strive to keep in my cycling. I have heard a rumour from a mate of yours who is looking after your car while you are overseas that you probably pack more power in your legs than your car packs under the bonnet…and that your car stereo might even be more powerful than your legs…please clarify: My car is definitely more powerful than my legs. I put down 2200 watts in the lab the other month, but this is insignificantly small compared to my car… and I’m not sure how it stacks up against my stereo…could be a close call. Finish this rap line: “Check yourself...” Before you wreck yourself in the next Pro Sprint Eliminator!

VIRTUE Series

FELT’S MOST VERSATILE OFF-ROAD SERIES IS DESIGNED TO COMBINE THE AGILITY AND PERFORMANCE OF A CROSS-COUNTRY BIKE WITH THE STABILITY AND CONTROL OF AN AGGRESSIVE TRAIL BIKE. The Virtue offers riders a unique blend of versatility and performance unparalleled in the industry. Whether you are looking for an off-road race machine, or an all-purpose trail bike, the Virtue has it covered. The Virtue is built around Felt’s award-winning Equilink suspension system which can now be adjusted to either 120mm or 130mm to meet every off-road rider’s individual needs. All of the 2012 Virtue models come with 120mm suspension forks, making it a perfect performer for epic XC or marathon riding and racing. Want to tackle more rugged terrain? Just switch the rear link position to gain an additional 10mm of rear travel. Each Virtue is crafted to be as light and torsionally stiff as possible while also delivering a precise and confident feel. Engineers accomplished this by incorporating Felt’s ControlTaper headtube and top-of-the-line materials to the Virtue platform. Additionally, the geometry has been updated to give a more stable and efficient ride.

VIRTUE Series

The Virtue Series features three levels of frames: a full alloy version with a new manufacturing technique that gives it a smoother, more organic look; an alloy/carbon blend that features a hydroformed aluminum front triangle and carbon fibre rear; and the dazzling new full-carbon model, which is constructed with Felt’s most advanced materials and processes including Dynamic Monocoque Construction and InsideOut Internally Optimized Molding Process. Each Virtue features custom-valved rear shocks to keep the suspension active. While many frame designs rely on platform damping to reduce unwanted suspension movement, Felt’s Equilink allows the shock to do its job without the rider influencing suspension performance. Ride any trail with more speed, comfort and efficiency than you ever dreamed possible. Ride Virtue.

SIX Series Fully

Paul van der Ploeg, Winner Sprint WC Dalby

MTB Hardtail EACH OF THE SIX SERIES MODELS – FROM THE SUB-20 POUND CARBON Fibre LTD THAT’S RACED BY THE PROS TO THE WELL-ROUNDED ELITE MODEL – IS DESIGNED TO MEET STRINGENT PERFORMANCE GOALS. The professional racers who depend on Felt’s Six Series bikes to compete on the World Cup Cross-Country circuit demand a lot from their bikes. They must be light enough to fly up steep, technical climbs, quick yet stable enough to track flawlessly through everything from rock gardens to slimy roots, and durable enough to withstand the abuse week in and week out. That, in a nutshell, describes the Six series. Even if you’re not a racer, these are the qualities that make a great hardtail mountain bike. Each of the Six series models – from the sub-20 pound carbon fibre LTD that’s raced by the pros to the well-rounded Elite model – is designed to meet stringent performance goals. To achieve such the perfect blend of efficiency, ride quality and durability, Felt relies on its unmatched experience in building highperformance carbon fibre bicycles. The framesets featured in the Six Series offer the best balance of strength, durability, stiffness and light weight that’s currently on the market. Race-proven in Europe by the Felt Ötztal X-Bionic World Cup team, and in North America by the Kenda-Felt programs, each Six combines triedand-true hardtail efficiency and performance with the unmistakable ride quality that defines every Felt bike. All of the Six carbon fibre frames feature an integrated chain-

guard as well as a Kevlar-reinforced rock guard that protects the downtube from getting dinged. The frame is built with proven race-oriented geometry. Riders wanting the most aggressive handling can use an 80mm fork, while those looking for a plusher, more stable ride can run 100mm of travel up front without compromise. Like the carbon fibre Nine models, the Six uses a one-piece integrated carbon fibre seatstay/dropout/chainstay section that increases strength and stiffness while decreasing weight. Carbon fibre’s ability to be radically shaped allows Felt engineers to create excellent tyre clearance without sacrificing chainring clearance. As a result, the Six offers the best combination of drivetrain efficiency and tyre clearance of any Felt mountain bike. Each of the 2011 Six models are race-ready right out of the box. The parts have been chosen with one eye on lightweight World Cup race performance, and another on everyday durability. Even though it’s right at home with the world’s top cross-country athletes, Six is more than just a disposable, one-season race bike. Race it one week, take it on an epic trail ride the next. Find out for yourself how the Six Series redefines the possibilities of a competitive cross-country mountain bike.

Thomas Litscher, World Team Champion

WITH CUTTING-EDGE FRAME TECHNOLOGY AND A SUPERIOR RIDE QUALITY THAT HAS WON OVER MANY OF FELT’S PROFESSIONAL CROSS-COUNTRY RACERS, FELT’S NINE SERIES BIKE BLEND THE SUREFOOTED HANDLING CHARACTERISTICS OF 29” WHEELS WITH THE TYPE OF RAZOR-SHARP, RACEBRED PERFORMANCE THAT CHARACTERIZES EVERY BIKE THAT BEARS THE FELT NAME. Design criteria for the Nine has always been strict and focused. The goal is to combine the low rolling resistance of 29” wheels’ shallow approach angle with the higher gyroscopic effect of the larger wheel – while still maintaining the crisp handling characteristics of traditional 26” wheel bikes.

improves the bike’s abilities on out-of-the-saddle climbs. The combination of all these features makes the Nine feel more like a traditional hardtail mountain bike, only faster. The result of all this engineering is a bike that inspires confidence with its tried-and-true handling.

To maximize the Nine’s performance on the trail, Felt engineers modified the head angle and added a fork that produces the same trail as the Six Series. In addition, the Nine frames were constructed with the same bottom bracket height as the Six bikes – lower than most other 29” wheel bikes to give it a low center of gravity and put the rider more in tune with the terrain.

Top Nine models feature Felt’s proprietary Dynamic Monocoque carbon fibre construction for improved ride quality, drivetrain efficiency, torsional rigidity and tyre clearance. Naturally, a carbon fibre frame means the bike is lighter and offers a more comfortable ride as a result of carbon fibre’s natural damping ability.

The larger wheels did pose some formidable design challenges to Felt engineers. Chainstays on 29’’ wheel bikes frequently run long to accommodate the tyre and front derailleur. But thanks to a curved seat tube and forged chainstay yoke on the aluminum frames, Felt engineers were able to keep the chainstays short without interfering with the front derailleur. This keeps rider weight properly distributed. Better front-to-rear weight distribution

The Pro’s of the FELT ÖTZTAL X-BIONIC Team will tell you: The Nine is an endurance racer’s dream. With its light weight and ability to float over rocks, it blends a smooth riding experience with incredible responsiveness. Its 29” wheels make longer off-road efforts more sustainable. Whether you are a seasoned marathon racer or weekend sport or recreational rider, there’s a Nine that’s tailor-made for you.

ENDURO 19

2012

A big up is due here to SRAM for the amazing XO 2x10 groupset which is right at home here on the Felt 9. The 39/26t combination felt so at home on this 29er you would think it was designed for it. I am certainly impressed with the new 2x10 system, with old XO reliability, but new XO performance. The shifts were smooth and accurate, with enough gears to get you from tourist walking pace to warp speed and incredible braking power to pull you up to avoid hitting a tourist. The Rockshox Reba RLT fork may only have 80mm of travel, but with the tried and true Dual-air system, the fork has 80mm of solid plushness to put that front wagon wheel right where you want it. And what more can we say about Mavic Crossmax wheels that you haven’t heard before? Well these are 29 inch, and much like 26 inch version, they are light, stiff, and ultra-reliable. To be honest, with the ragged style with which I rode this bike, I was amazed they were still round when we shot the pics for it.

THE VERDICT What else can I say that I have not said already? This bike made me want a 29er in my bike shed! It is an awesome steed that just made me wanna ride and ride damn fast. I seriously could not find anything with this bike that I didn’t like. Sure, it might not be your pick if you are heading out for 24 hours solo, but if you have a race track or trail to ride fast and want the benefits of 29er wheels but the agility we usually look for in a 26er…you need look no further. If you are in the market for a 29er race rig, and have the dosh for carbon, then seriously folks, check this bike out.

AR Series

BLENDING THE LIGHTWEIGHT, STIFF AND QUICK-HANDLING PERFORMANCE OF A PROFESSIONAL-GRADE CARBON FIBRE ROAD RACING BIKE WITH THE AERODYNAMIC ADVANTAGES OF A TIME TRIAL BIKE, THE AR HAS REDEFINED WHAT A ROAD BIKE IS CAPABLE OF ACCOMPLISHING. Four years ago pro racers challenged Felt to put its aerodynamic expertise toward designing a new road bike. The racers asked Felt, makers of the world’s fastest time trial and track bikes (the DA and the TK1), to help them improve their performance and efficiency in the road races they compete in day in and day out. The end result was the revolutionary AR platform. The AR was officially unveiled at the 2008 Tour de France after a collaborative development effort between Felt engineers and athletes. The bike immediately got attention especially considering that the pros know that at the speeds they race, aerodynamic efficiency can be the differenece between winning and losing. Following cues from the DA time trial bike, the AR is designed with an aerodynamically optimized down tube, head tube, chainstays, seatstays, fork blades and a wheelwell-conforming seat tube. It also features the shielded internal cable routing found in the DA to maximize its aerodynamic advantage. The result of this design is clear. Against its true adversary – the wind – the AR gives racers a tangible advantage. Testing

ROAD

AR Series

sessions at the San Diego Low Speed Wind Tunnel facility have proven that, depending on speed and wind conditions, a rider can reasonably expect to save from 58 to 75 seconds over the course of an hour when compared to a bike with round frame tubes in similar conditions. For riders, the AR’s advantage is evident any time it is in the wind. It’s the perfect machine for making a successful breakaway, or bringing one back. Racers have become increasingly aware of the significance of aerodynamics therefore making the AR’s awardwinning design the premier bike for many of our pro teams. Like all Felt road bikes, the AR is characterized by crisp handling. The proprietary blend of carbon fibre materials used to construct the frame give it the stiffness and ride quality for which Felt is known. Beyond the frame, each AR is outfitted with a full complement of race-ready parts. From aerodynamic wheels to precision drivetrains, the AR Series is designed and built to deliver you to your best performance ever.

FROM THE TOUR DE FRANCE TO YOUR WEEKLY CRITERIUM, MOUNTAINTOP FINISHES TO MASS SPRINTS, FELT’S F SERIES BIKES ARE ALL ABOUT WINNING. Whether it’s the carbon fibre F1 ridden by pros on Team Exergy and Jayco-2XU or a quick, agile aluminum model, F promises speed and performance. With the F Series, Felt blends no-nonsense racing geometry and the world’s most advanced materials for a full line of crisphandling bikes made to rip through corners, fly up climbs and accelerate in an instant. The horizontal top tube, shorter head tube, sharp trail and tight wheelbase – all aimed at producing full-performance body positioning on the bike – make it the best choice to meet your competitive goals. The top-of-the-line F1 incorporates Felt’s cutting-edge InsideOut molding process and UHC+Nano carbon fibre to minimize weight, while a BB30 bottom bracket, and a ControlTaper head tube deliver unmatched power transmission and stiffness. Literally every strand of carbon fibre is engineered to deliver optimal performance and a refined ride. This same attention to detail

continues throughout the line with every F model benefitting from the development of the top professional racing bikes. One of the hallmarks of F bikes is consistent handling and stiffness throughout the series. Whether you’re riding the F1 or the all new F95 Junior, the largest frame or the smallest, frame stiffness and handling feel quite similar. So every F Series rider, no matter their budget, can enjoy the same responsiveness in and out of the saddle, sprinting, climbing or cornering. Each F Series bike comes equipped with components designed to optimize that particular model. Felt’s product development team pores over the details to build an entire line at every price level. Each component has been chosen to provide the best possible combination of performance and value. Get more acquainted with the podium this year. Get an F Series bike.

Z Series

WHETHER YOU’RE RACING OR ATTEMPTING TO COMPLETE AN ALL-DAY EPIC, COMFORT IS A CRITICAL FACTOR IN YOUR PERFORMANCE. IT’S SIMPLE: THE MORE COMFORTABLE YOU ARE, THE BETTER YOU CAN RIDE. That’s where the Z Series comes in. It’s specifically designed to blend performance and comfort so you can ride farther and faster – and enjoy every ride more than ever before. Take a look at some of the bikes that were raced to victory over long, grueling races like the Tour de France over the years and you’ll notice they were a bit different than those that are popular today. They were built to be stable on fast descents and featured a slightly more upright rider position. They had longer wheelbases and offered excellent vibration damping – proven ways to reduce fatigue. These ride characteristics are central to the design goals of the Z. Z Series frames use a slightly longer head tube for more flexibility in handlebar and rider positioning. They feature a sloping top tube for increased stand-over clearance, and they benefit from improved vertical compliance due to a more exposed seatpost. The Z also features a slightly longer wheelbase for calm and confident handling at any speed. Even with its distinctly different look and eye toward improved

ROAD

Z Series

comfort, it’s a mistake to think of the Z as a non-performanceoriented bike. The Z has been used in the most prestigious races in the world including the World Championships and the Tour de France. The Z packs the same torsional stiffness and bottom bracket rigidity as Felt’s legendary F Series bikes. This all adds up to a bike that can be ridden in classic racing position, yet also provides options. Whether you choose a Z model built from super-premium UHC Ultimate+Nano carbon fibre and cutting-edge electronic Shimano Di2 shifting, or one of the lightweight aluminum/carbon fibre models, you’ll get the same assured handling and race-worthy stiffness. It’s a ride that’s as responsive as it is confidenceinspiring. All Z Series bikes are built with the right components for the ideal fit, plus gearing for any terrain and unmatched reliability. Each bike is equipped with either a compact or triple crankset combined with a wide-range cassette to help you tackle hills. If ever there was a bike to inspire you to reach new heights, the Z is it.

ZW Series Peanut Butter & Co. TWENTY12

THE GOAL OF FELT’S ZW SERIES IS TO HONESTLY ADDRESS THE UNIQUE NEEDS OF WOMEN CYCLISTS FROM BOTH AN ENGINEERING STANDPOINT AND AN ATHLETE’S PERSPECTIVE. Many manufacturers introduce women’s bikes by simply switching some parts, such as saddles and handlebars, and changing the frame graphics to set them apart from men’s models. But Felt started the entire design and engineering process from scratch.

The top-of-the-line ZW model uses Felt’s unparalleled UHC Ultimate+Nano carbon fibre, and in all ZW bikes the materials are carefully optimized for women’s needs. For example, they all feature smaller diameter tubes, thinner tube walls and shorter tube intersections.

The ZW shares some of the ride characteristics of the Z Series. Both feature a longer wheelbase for an extremely confident, assured ride quality. Both offer more handlebar positioning choices, a sloping top tube for superior stand-over clearance and improved vertical compliance that results from a more exposed seatpost. Those design features contribute to the ZW’s overall ride quality, but to really optimize the bike for women, and to address every anatomical detail, every angle and dimension of the frame was scrutinized. Because a woman’s body has distinctly different proportions than a man’s, simply making a smaller frame is not an effective solution. Essentially, Felt reverse-engineered the geometry to achieve the desired fit.

As with everything that Felt designs, the ZW is focused on performance. Felt’s Pro women’s team Peanut Butter & Co. TWENTY12 and reigning Olympic Triathlon champion Emma Snowsill have ridden the ZW to multiple victories in some of the most prestigious races in the world. The ZW is stiff enough for unmatched efficiency, light enough to keep the pros flying over hills, and designed with size-appropriate vertical compliance. Beyond the frame, other ZW women’s-specific parts and components include slightly shorter cranks and carefully selected compact gearing. The stems are shorter and the handlebar is narrower and shallower. The brake levers feature adjustable reach for smaller hands, and every ZW comes with a comfortable women’s-specific saddle.

Constructed from the same materials as the Z Series bikes, the ZW lay-up is customized to improve performance for women.

So what does it all mean? It means that finally there is a bike you can call your own. A bike that’s comfortable, invigorating, motivating and thoroughly enjoyable.

Sarah Hammer, World Champion

FELT PUTS A GREAT DEAL OF EFFORT TOWARD SUPPORTING COMPETITIVE TRACK RACERS TRYING TO ACHIEVE THEIR DREAMS. Whether it’s sprint events or distance events, there’s no room for error on the velodrome, and developing bikes for World Champions like Sarah Hammer and Elite track teams like Project London keeps Felt on the cutting edge of technology. In track racing, it’s one bike, one gear – and the results don’t lie. Like the DA time trial/triathlon bike, the TK1 uses Felt’s UHC Ultimate+Nano carbon fibre, unsurpassed for its ability to make lightweight, stiff, ride-tuned performance bikes. Just as with the DA, the TK1 was engineered using powerful, cutting-edge CFD software and extensive aerodynamic analysis. Once the materials were chosen, Felt engineers applied proven geometry to give the bike precise, track-specific handling characteristics.

All of Felt’s track bikes have developed a loyal following among track racers from beginner to pro. The TK2 and TK3 use the same aerodynamic know-how of the pro-level bikes and are engineered with lightweight, responsive aluminum frame tubing. All Felt track bikes feature quality touches such as CNC-machined dropouts and internally-machined bottom bracket shells. Find out for yourself why Felt track bikes have developed such a hardcore following among such a wide variety of racers. Whether you’re a World Champion or a Wednesday night champion, Felt offers the fastest way to get around the track.

TT/TRI Series Mirinda Carfrae, IM World Champion

FELT BUILT ITS NAME ON CREATING INNOVATIVE, AERODYNAMIC BIKES TO RACE AGAINST THE CLOCK. For more than 20 years, we have continually brought new ideas to rider positioning, efficiency and, above all, aerodynamic performance. From World Champion triathletes Mirinda Carfrae, and Terenzo Bozzone to reigning Olympic Time Trial Champion Kristin Armstrong, when it comes to solo efforts, riders rely on Felt. The bikes you see in our 2012 TT/Tri Series have undergone years of development and have already been proven – in the wind tunnel and in competition – to be our fastest yet. It starts with the DA. Felt’s premier TT/Tri bike incorporates radically shaped frame tubing, UHC Ultimate+Nano carbon fibre, and a host of new technologies including the Bayonet 3 Steering System and proprietary, aerodynamic brakes. The DA’s design process was time-consuming and expensive, but the results are worth it. After extensive internal brainstorming, detailed rider feedback, and studies in airflow and tube shapes, the engineering team used powerful Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software to test their designs in a virtual environment. CFD, commonly used in the design of F1 racecars

TT/TRI Series

and multi-million dollar yachts, allows Felt to dial in their designs before creating physical prototypes. By the time the DA prototypes were built, Felt engineers already understood what frame shapes worked best; but the development phase is never complete until the bike is analyzed in the wind tunnel. Over a period of more than a year, adjustments wer made and new prototypes were built-until they got it absolutely perfect. But the real strength of Felt’s TT/Tri Series is its depth. For 2012, the DA will be available in five different configurations including a new women’s specific model. The B Series bikes, which are continuously recognized by cycling magazine editors for their blend of incredible performance and value, will be available in four variants including a women’s specific model. Every Felt TT/Tri bike is outfitted with a meticulously selected collection of components and parts. Each one, no matter its price, is built to offer the best aerodynamic performance and fit so that you can reach your goals. With Felt TT/Tri bikes, your best performance has never been more attainable.

SALES SUPPORT MARKETING SUPPORT

PASSION. POWER. FELT.

Marketing Support It is no secret that Felt is best known as a product company. We would not have it any other way. The commitment to designing, developing and delivering the best bicycles in the world is not just our company mantra, but is the very fabric of our core culture. It is also no secret that no matter how great a product is, generating awareness is a tremendous part of what it takes to be successful with that product. While we undertake literally hundreds of marketing initiatives during the course of a year or product cycle, below are the primary mechanisms we employ:

Thomas Litscher: Team World Champion feltbicycles.com

Team and Athletes Racing is in our blood and it is safe to say it will always be at the heart of our message. Going back to Jim Felt’s very first frame – which won Kona – it is competition that fuels our passion to continually build better bicycles. Regardless of the discipline – triathlon, road, mountain, track, cyclocross – Felt has made significant investments into putting the best athletes on our bikes, who, in turn, press us to build even better ones. It is a never-ending cycle. And we love it. Olympic years are always especially exciting and we are looking forward to seeing how our very medal-capable athletes fare in London.

Advertising Felt takes a selective but broad approach to advertising, which includes both print and online efforts. For 2012 we have launched our “What Drives You?” campaign which is designed to engage viewers with a message on why they should consider Felt. The campaign is also designed to be flexible enough to accommodate a product, result, image or experience.

World Wide Web As the World Wide Web continues to change how we seek and retrieve information, as well as how we interact with each other, Felt has kept pace. This includes not just major investments into our consumer site, but also “connecting the dots” through our dedicated social sites. FaceBook, Twitter, YouTube and our blog – the Felt Garage Door – are now all playing majors roles when it comes to messaging and interaction. We continue to hit new usage milestones and for 2012, you can expect to see improved features and behaviors to our consumer site, increased traffic and interaction on our social sites, and coming in the late fall, an all-new mobile version of our site.

Public Relations The intangible in any marketing effort is what kind of attention can be gained from the media. Felt continues to have great success in this area between its extraordinary products, athletic accomplishments, and relationships with the cycling, sports and lifestyle community.
