Felt Mafia: check in! (Page 6)

Would you be able to snap a pic with the Torhans? I want to see how it looks. Thinking about one for my bike.

so i cleaned up the cables a bit, slammed the steam, and put my amado road on. plus i saw the pic with the custom decal of a name and though id do it to.

i feel like a pro now.

Here's my entry form to the Felt Mafia club.  She's still a little dirty since I took this immediately following my Saturday ride.  Her name is Ellenor.

2 bottle cages + tire kit behind the seat.

1 bottle cage on the seat tube

1 bottle cage zip tied to the aerobars

cell phone/money case slightly attached to the top tube.

This is the set up I use for training.  For a race I'll drop the cell phone case and the bottle cages behind the seat.

My new Felt and the whole stable

Here's my entry a (new) 2011 Felt B16...sorry she's not completely naked; I haven't had time to take some really good pics...just got her the other day.

...and one of the upgraded cockpit, Profile Design T3+ aero bars with a OZERO base bar; also note the SRAM S60's I added.

hard to do her any justice without the right lighting...maybe I'll get her outside on a sunny day and reshoot a few pics but she's a beauty nonetheless.

Here is one of my Felt bikes.

Is that one of Zabriskie's bikes? That's the only other time I've ever seen one with a bayonette chopped down like that.

I'll throw my lot in with you all. 2011 Felt B16. Sorry for the poor quality of the picture:

I like the color scheme on the 2011s.  Not the same ol' same ol' Black/White/Red

Lots-o-B16s around though!  Must be a good bike!

PS - Straighten your rug.

I know - right? I get the B16 and EVERYONE seems to have one now! Just like when you get a new car and then notice how many of the same color/make/model there are out on the road...I just want to be unique! Wait a minute - I wonder how many Felt B16's are in Germany???

Not very many... You see a lot of the name brands trek, specalized and a lot of the German based company bikes Storck, Focus, Simplon. Bikes that are uber $exy but $$$$$ here in the USA.

---EDIT----  picture not uploading,,,  sorry

My new one.    Felt bars werent wide enough and I wanted the ego wheels so I decided to go the bare frameset + build route.    

- Zipp vuka carbon bull bars / extensions

- SRAM force group

- TT900 carbon shifters / brake levers

- Zipp 808/404 (used eBay purchase)

- weighs a little over 18

for me it was the price. i was at the bike shop just browsing around and found a transition pro for cheep and told the sales guy id be back in 2 weeks when i would get paid. well when i came back the bike was gone, and i wasnt going to leave the store empty handed. thats when i found the felt.

and now that i have like ~100miles on it, i love it. still need to dial it in, but im in the ballpark in terms of fit.

Seems to be so far!

I like the black and white, the shop had the 2011 and 2012 in my size, I went for the 2012.
