"Felt says they will warranty the frame. They're between model years so I'm waiting for the 2013 to get to CA so they can ship it to my east coast dealer."2moremiles

(5)

Quality of Construction

nice carbon layup. tube joints are smooth and can show naked carbon without worry

(4)

Fit

this bike should fit many riders

(4)

Comfort

took some time to get used to aero. Now that its gone I miss it. Road bike set to aero now is not nearly as comfortable. I hope to have the warranty frame back and built before 140.6

(4)

Adjustability

Felt extensions adjust well. Like the way they fit through the bars

(1)

Durability

seat tube failure at 1900 miles

(5)

Value

no better value than Felt B12 and B16

(4)

Appearance

2o12 good looking bike. Hope the 2013 is half as sharp

(4)

Customer Service

Quick to warranty, slow to ship. Frame is on boat from Taiwan. Understandable but not helping me with A race

(4)

Performance

The bike gets you aero, is comfortable. On the heavy side

Strengths

Good looking aero bike. Good parts mix. Like the metron shifters and DA derailleurs. Rear brake is hard to get to to adjust

Weakness

Seat post where the seat tube inserts failed after 1900 miles. It widened over time so as not to be able to tighten the seat clamp bolts enough to hold the seat tube tightly.
