Training version of my good bike (Felt F1) - same geo and size to help with my bad back jumping between bikes :)

New 105 5800 groupset feels very nice - same size and shape as Dura Ace 9000, just a bit heavier and not as flash but shifts almost as crisply and freely - in the car park anyway!

    What size frame is this? I've just ordered an myself a black F85 in a 58cm. Not had experience with Felt bikes before but they seem to get good reviews.
    This is a very nice looking bike though.

    58cm Badger.

    I really like my Felts - had a 2011 F5, now got an F1 and this. Classic racer geo and nice plain tubes - no ugly weird bulges or 'marketing bumps' - pure and fast ;)

    I just realised that this is the base model that has been judiciously upgraded. Credit to Felt that they can produce such a handsome frame for that budget.

    I don't suppose you weighed the frame and fork in between upgrading everything? How does it feel compared to your other bike?

    It's really nice Munzy. Saw your F1 too. Stunning mate. Dream bike for me! Took delivery of my f85 today. Was a little concerned about the sizing but the 58 seems good for me. Added some Fulcrum racing 5's. She needs a few additions like a slightly longer stem etc but for an entry level bike she looks great in her new shoes. Looking forward to getting out for a ride! Will add some pics when she has finished.
