Detailed description for Felt B12 Road Bike 2012
This is a Triathlon specific UHC carbon frame (and fork) that will satisfy your pocket and your performance. It’s an outstanding package giving you a professional level machine. The full aero tubeset, tri bars and deep 38mm TTR rims give the look of Felt’s even higher end models. Wheel recesses in the frame give a compact look, feel and reality of a sharp turning, snappy steed. Not too scary, but definitely a sharp performer. Still weighing in at sub 20 Ilbs means that Felt want the B12 to make a mark in this selective market. For the B12 you’ll be shifting with the slick Dura Ace system, and also wearing the Vision brand on your sleeve with their distinctive chain ring and brake levers.
