I have the same bike and am slowly kitting it out like yours. Any clearance issues with a 24mm wide disc on the back? What size tire are you running?

On these pictures running 23mm tire - no issues with clearance. Keep on mind that my P3SL is size 58. I don't know if it would be the same situation with the smaller frame.

FYI, I run HED Ardennes with Conti Ultra Sport 25mm tires (measuring 28mm installed) and that works too.
Ardennes are 25mm wide with 21mm inner rim width.

I have done yet another round of performance and luxury upgrades to my 2016 My Felt IA16. I guess I could say it is now 150% upgraded. It has its 3rd drivetrain and 3rd set of wheels from new. But the stuff that matters is I tweaked my position, put on faster wheels, and installed the draft box. It is yet more aero and even lighter than before. I have done three rides on the new setup, and it is about 25W faster than my 2017 setup. (That is, for about the same speeds, I was putting 20W to 30W less power for about every Strava segment I compared. And, as a control, the climbing segments were about the same speed for power.) The last change to make is a Tririg tilt kit (ordered). But, I do not plan to install it for my first HIM in three weeks.

One very cool upgrade is an CNC-machined aluminum extension stick for my Tririg bridge plate that lets me mount the Garmin out front. Forum member Pwraddr designed and created it. I plan to post separate pictures on that later.
  • HED Jet Black 9/Disc wheels
  • Tririg Omega X front & rear brakes
  • Tririg Alpha X bars
  • Profile T1+ Carbon extensions
  • Cane Creek headset
  • Shimano R805 Di2 drivetrain
  • Cee Gees pads
  • XLab Torpedo bottle & cage on the Alpha X BTA Bracket
  • Pwraddr's Garmin mount extension stick
  • Garmin Edge 520
  • Cobb 55 saddle with Cobb rear mount hydration system
  • SRAM Red 22 170mm 52/36 crankset
  • Powertap P1 pedals
  • Premier Ultra Optimized Chain (with Premier's chain lube)
  • Ultegra 11-25 cassette
  • Continental Attack & Force tires
  • Vittoria Latex tubes






And for the sake of comparison, here is my bike last year. That version took about 25W to ride the same speed as above.

Why the change in wheels?

It’s kind of a “Give a Mouse a Cookie” path. I wanted a disc for the speed. I wished I had a 90mm up front for the cosmetics. So, I was thinking about a complete set. I was influenced here by the number of HED advocates. The idea of Black’s breaking was appealing. From what I read, I did not think I would give up much, if any, speed to the FLOs. The HED disc is a little lighter than FLOs discs. My Bike Shop had a great sale on HEDs... so I defected.

This is the most amazing build I've ever seen on ST. Bravo sir. As a side note, there's nothing wrong with painting your aero bottle ;) Also, how do you like the vision BTA? I like mine. Your the first person I've seen besides myself to run it and I run it in the exact same configuration as you *but* I rotate the straw forwards toward the end of my aero bars and use a magnet to secure it.

My guess is a tilt kit from Premier Bikes? Looks like the same angled wedge seen on the Tactical.

Apologies for being a Luddite, but how can I search a single thread like this (as opposed to the entire forum)?
Thanks.

You could-- instead of selecting a page from the dropdown on this thread select View All. Warning: It's going to take a while to load (1-2 minutes). Then you can use the control+f keyboard shortcut to 'find' a keyword or user and scroll through your hits.

I found a guy that had them machined in a UK time trialling forum and got a 10, 15 and a 20 degree kit. I am running the 15 at the moment. They look like they come out the Pro factory powder coated and everything. PM me if you want one and I will put you in touch.

Haha I tried putting the black Torhans VR that I had used on my Dimond Brilliant to race but it didn't fit as nice on the Marquise. I then tried the black elite aero bottle I have but found it had split in it from last race I ever used it before going to the VR after it bounced out my frame racing. So I tried the specialized bottle and it fitted perfectly but being the day before the race I wasn't going to pull the spray paint out but likely will. I used to run the Xlab Torpedo and think the Vision is far better. One with the straw that bends away and based on what some if the people on here get bent over when it comes to aero I am sure it will excite some but you also don't have to worry about the straw hitting you when you put your head down. It has the mesh inside and a better sealing system with the refill opening right at the top that suits a tilt kit set up a lot better so I couldn't be happier with it.
