@SuperDave do you know how many cm. i can ajust the felt bayonet 3 in the new Felt IA14?
i need to know the differents height to get my optimal position

In addition to this query, will the fit calculator for the IA and DA bikes on the Felt website be updated to include the new IA bikes and account for the geometry and any differences in the cockpit? I've used the calculator to see what size frame it recommends and then assumed I would need an additional 10mm of spacers in the cockpit over the configuration suggested due to the change in geometry for the new versions. However I'm not certain if there are any other cockpit differences.
the IA10 and IA14 use a two-position base bar and the base bar comes in 2 width options. You can raise the brake lever position of the base bar without changing the headset stack, stem, etc. That isn't possible on the IA FRD, IA1, IA2, IA3, or IA4.
the IA10 and IA14 have "infinite" positions to attach the extensions. The IA FRD, IA1, IA2, IA3, or IA4 have two mounts which offer 4 fixed width positions.
the IA10 and IA14 have rotation adjustment to the extensions so you may not need an additional 10mm of spacers depending on your arm rest and hand positions.
In general, unless you're at an absolute extreme, the frame sizes overlap with the IA10 and IA14 having a few more adjustment features that slightly slow the entire bike aerodynamically.
