THE AR. FOR THOSE WHO CRAVE UNBRIDLED SPEED.
Going fast isn't only about aero; it's also about staying fresher and more composed than the competition so that you are primed for that decisive attack or rush to the finish line. To create the fastest Felt road bike ever, we built upon the solid foundation of aero testing and road wins delivered across prior generation AR's. On top of this we added the new trends of wider tires, cable integration, and vibration dampening technologies to create a complete rider-first package. Go. Fast.
AERODYNAMICS
Aero has evolved. Gone are the massive, deep-section, teardrop shapes and hard edges to tube shapes. The latest research has shifted aero bike development towards truncated, squared-off profiles (sometimes referred to as "Kammtail" designs) optimized for real-world riding conditions instead of the lab. Now, properly designed bikes perform better during actual riding and racing conditions.
DISC BRAKES & THRU-AXLES
Disc brakes are found on the entire Felt road line-up. Our all-around road bike model (FR series), our cyclocross race bike (FX series), and even our flagship triathlon model (IA series) - all of which have won World Championships in recent seasons - feature disc brakes. Through testing and experience, we know that disc brakes can win races on the biggest stage. The AR is optimized to feature disc brakes with recessed thru-axles for the most wind-cutting profile.
OPTIMIZED COCKPIT
The AR's cock-pit system pairs the sleek look of an integrated aero profile without the hassle of the one-piece design. Easier to adjust and maintain, our separate bar and stem set-up is part of our rider-first mindset, ensuring that the individual athlete can easily change bar width and angle along with stem lengths for a dialed fit. And, our spacer kit helps to further dial in optimal fit.
SPEED THROUGH COMFORT
To help you go to your limit, we pioneered a unique aero seatpost design featuring our signature split design that flexes and shears independently, increasing overall rider comfort to help you go even faster. Sitting inside a co-molded plastic/rubber insert, the entire frame-dampener-seatpost interface delivers extra compliance and improved performance. Stay comfortable and hurt the competition.If we aren't showing your size this bike is available to pre-order.
