Show Us Your Carbon!!!

DAMN! look at that seat post, are you a giant?

Yep, and that's a 61cm frame as well. I'm 6"6', people love sitting on my wheel.

FELT F2 Now Completed...... And rides like a dream!
(Now full Dura Ace Di2 Groupset (excepting the chainset, the FSA K-Force Light is lighter and stiffer than Dura Ace with proper BB30 compatibility) with C24 Tubeless wheels and Hutchinson Atom tubeless tyres).

Thanks! You'd look great on it in your full blue body paint, very coordinated

love the felts, they are so cool and liking that colour a lot, but they do place the battery in a stupid place. If it rains the battery gets covered in road grime very quickly.
I did a seatpost battery with in bike charging on a felt and modified the loom so it also powers flare lights, the bike also featured stealth bar top shifting which I needed to test so took it for a ride, they go pretty well imho

very cool bike though. Lovely

Lovely indeed.

It's a bit of a trade off really, I think the battery looks nice and tidy down there out of the way, can look a bit of an eyesore on the down tube. But you're right it is susceptible to getting dirty down there, though I've never had any issues caused by that and to be fair it doesn't see that much wet weather unless I get caught out! Cheers.

Lovely looking bike, love the matt black finish.

Good choice of BB30 crankset especially with the matching colours, although is it really stiffer than DA? Definitely lighter, but even Cannondale concede they can't quite get as stiff even with their new one piece spider+rings, although it is much lighter, and cheaper to replace. When my DA chainrings need replacing it'll be difficult to decide on whether to go for a whole new crankset or just replace the rings.

Did I read that in some marketing blurb from FSA or maybe I just made it up I really can't remember, either way it's a cracking Chainset.........

Agree they look an eyesore on the downtube, its that very thing which got me into modding Di2 and why seat post conversions are so popular, im not sure any bike maker really knows what to do with the battery yet. Did notice though that the next gen Di2 has a seat post battery option which I dare say makes it even more expensive, yay.

Wow Billy, I like it mate! Will you be riding this one on Sunday or the Cannondale?

 

[billy1561]
