The Felt F5 2011 Road Bike. With the unbeatable performance of a lightweight UHC Performance carbon fiber frame, built to exacting standards through Felt's Modular Monocoque Construction, the F5 is equally adept at city limit sprints or long mountain climbs. Balancing a high level of stiff pedaling efficiency with precision handling in sprints, corners and twisting descents, it's a versatile all-rounder for everyday performance.
With the F Series, Felt blends no-nonsense racing geometry and the world’s most advanced materials for a full line of crisp-handling 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.
All of the F bikes have been redesigned for 2011. The F1 SL was created with input from our ProTour team riders who, like all Felt athletes, are instrumental in the feedback process. The bike shaves an incredible 100 grams off the 2010 F1 SL while improving pedaling stiffness by 35 percent. With those stats, Felt-sponsored pros couldn’t wait to get their hands on the new F1, and they wasted no time putting the new bikes to the test at the 2010 Tour of Romandie and Tour of Switzerland.
The improvements to the F1 SL are made possible by radical engineering and cutting-edge manufacturing techniques. And the technology trickles down through the entire line, with every F model benefitting from the development of the top professional race bikes.
One of the hallmarks of F bikes is consistent handling and stiffness throughout the series. Whether you’re riding the F1 or the F95, 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.
