Other than riding a bike called a Felt arse, do they make decent bikes?

I knew nothing of Felt bikes, until I had to prep over 50 of the damn things for a friend, who hires them out. From then on, I realised what really nice bikes they are and even considered getting one myself.

I bought a couple of Felt bikes over from the US before they were available in Europe. Served me very well for a number of years. I find their styling a bit odd now and not to my taste, so have moved on to other makes. Having said that, they are very good bikes - well made and pretty good value.

I've got an AR4 and it's awesome to ride - so much faster than my Allez.

I have a 2010 Felt F75 - now my winter/turbo trainer bike with over 30,000 miles (a lot of them in crappy winter weather). Great bike, fast, handles well, good climber but as you would expect things wear out, especially when you sweat on it a lot on the TT and ride it in the worst weathers.

Not sure what the carbon Felt's are like but the Alu F series are a decent hack, well balanced and quick - I'd happily recommend one.

Just last week bought a Felt nine 4 full carbon hard tail, built quality is superb and love the way it handles quick and light. 1 happy puppy here and it's my first Felt
