Felt Bicycle Pics

[Walker]

I've been helping out my LBS by doing some assemblies at home after work. So far nothing with fat tires, fenders and coaster brakes but I'm working on him.. This is the latest batch of about 12 or so builds over the last week. The prior stuff was all carbon and aluminum road and triathalon and a couple of mtb's. Thought I'd share this road bike because of the color scheme. All Shimano 105 with FSA cranks, carbon fork and seatpost.

"Monster Green", check out the tapered fork legs and chain stay's

chain adjusters

this color was called Hibachi, only one with a brake cable rotor and a front loader stem



i have to say these bikes went together great, typical overtight hub bearings and minor wheel truing. Lots of nice little deails like color coordinated cable ends and stuff like that. the BMX pedals were plastic but you diehard guys probably have specific types you like so I can understand going cheap there.

Walker, that is a sweet gig. I like some of the triathlon and road bikes, but they cost more than I can afford on a bike.

thanks for sharing the pics.

I hear you, on one particular day I had about 12K in bikes in the back of my Forester...

This bike started life as a felt guapo, now its a Texas Special. I"m going to add a mini plate and custom signage on the tank.

Here she is.

Let's toss this Bandit into the mix:
I blacked out all the chromium, added a Brooks B90/3 saddle and Brooks leather washer grips.

I'm loving that seatpost....is that one of the standard laybacks from amazon with the support cut or what?

That bar stance and seat setback is similar to what Im running on my GT Dyno Deuce; it is way comfy and controllable for my 6'1" x 205ish#.

Yup...it is the one on Amazon with the support cut. I'm not a really big guy, so I don't think I will have a problem bending the seat post or damaging the down post. It rides great in this configuration!
