Here is something we made for a customer. Just a few dollars in carbon fiber and some patience with a dremel tool and drill. Works pretty well with some of the bolt-on style bento boxes.

Hello!

After reading all the posts, I decided to buy a Felt IA 16.
I haven't ridden it much yet, but from the times I've done it I think it's a great bike! Although I still have many things to learn, as this is my first ever TT bike.

I just have some questions about the handlebars. I did a bike fitting, and my position finished like this:



After a few rides, I find this position really comfortable, which makes me think I could go lower on the front.
But my handlebar pads are already in the lowest position.

Please, can I have any advice about how to get that lower front position? I suppose I could just buy a compatible stem/handlebar with lower height, but first I would really like to test the position.

I have thought in three options to lower the front height:
-Mounting the bars under the handlebar (but I'm not sure if that can be done with enough space to place the arm pads).
-Rotating and angling down a bit the arm pads so that my elbows sit a bit lower.
-Maybe increasing the reach (placing the pads more forward) could get me lower, but it would also change my arm angles.


Right now I'm planning to use it only on short (up to 1 hour) time trials, so getting an aggresive fit isn't a problem.


Thank you very much for your help!
Have a nice day.

Anybody running 25mm GP4000 SII? Do they fit the frame?

Dave, is there any alternative to the DiffLock clamps? The aluminium of the center bit is ridiculously soft and the bolts wore it out in two-three saddle swaps, already at the fitter. We haven't even come close to the maximum torque when this happened. Can't find a replacement DiffLock thingy in stock, either - only oval-rail versions.

The bike is incredible in every way, but it feels like the top half of the seatpost is a miss (top half because the split at the bottom is brilliant and superior to all the other slip-prone aero seatposts). A single setback option (too far forwards for some Adamo positions, not forwards enough for some traditional saddles), fiddly and fragile clamp...

Dave or anyone else with knowledge,
On the aluminum bars on the IA 10/14 , can the armrest brackets be mounted forward of the extension brackets in order to have the armrests more forward?

If you tighten one side of the Difflock then start the other you will not have enough thread engagement and will pull the few threads from the center. The inner spline needs to be positioned in the center and equal engagement for the bolts used.

There is another seatpost clamp mechanism without the vibration reducing module referred to a "VM" instead of "VR". I'm not sure if Felt makes it commercially available.

Anyone else have the seat mount/clamp unit (3T DiffLock Comfort Module) rotate within the seat post? Just happened to me today while doing a TT :(

Is this a known issue?

What extensions are you using? Are they longer than the stock f-bends?

Or if anybody has any suggestions for some longer bars.
