[Pete W]

swweeeeettttt!!!!!, can you post the full spec, what year is it??
great job

[ash_on_mtb]

yeah photoshoped out the hand of God, you can see it on the rear wheel if you try...!

Specs, mnah, you can pretty well see whats there, and I listed the other stuff... Stylo team cranks, truvatic team bars stem post, Juicy 7 brakes, Hutchinson proto air-in-a-can :cool: , umm questions??

Weight - its never been an issue for me. Firstly it has to cross the line without breaking,flexing,bending etc, secondly I have to be able to afford it (thanks SRAM/FELT/HUTCHINSON), and thirdly it being too heavy is not an excuse anymore (Triain more, lardass)!!!! You can't win if you can't finish.

The frame unfortunalty is no longer able to be purchased, it being an FR1000 from felt, handmade in the states. Its the last of the highend disc frames from felt, with no more being available from now on. This one was from 2003 I believe, although its just been sitting in a box till now. And having raced it on thursday night, I can say that the production bikes are not far off being as good as this bike, so don't be shy about buying one off the hook.

Looks good eh.

This is my weapon of choice. The only original parts are the frame, cranks, seat and grips.
