I have decided to buy a Felt B16, however, before I shell out that amount of monies, I really want to try one out, but I am struggling to find any dealers.

It seems Felts exclusive UK dealer is in Bristol, i.e. friggin miles away, does any know any dealer more local that would stock a B16?.

Even though the 2011 version is coming out 31st Oct, I would imagine the frame sizing would be the same.....

    Wiggle don't have a B16 (currently), and I contacted Evans about getting a test ride on a B16, they said that.....
    It is unlikely that the Store will have this in stock straight away when we recieve them unless you indicate your interest as a pre order.

    Any bike can be ordered into the store by contacting the store direct and placing a refundable deposit. If the bike is not shown as in stock on the website the store will/may require a 25% non refundable, but transferable deposit to order in the bike.

    Haven't heard from Saddleback yet.

    Might be a bit far for you to travel though......
