8 days Tai. The new MTB is everywhere since we've released it globally. Check this months' MBA pg 37 or use google and search on Felt Equilink. We are launching soon with full details for the public after Interbike. You'll likely get additional sneak peaks up till that point as well.

ShawnF: Photoshoot day today around Modjeska Cyn, so much bike porn we could have been ticketed for public indecency.

cool, thanks dave, can't wait to see the real thing (tri bike) and I've been wondering when you'll bring those awesome euro only mtn bikes to the US.

You know that new tri bike looks a lot like the _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ that we saw earlier on the forum;)

how brutal was eldo this past week? Were you in the break or in the main pack? Anyway, I noticed that you were riding the matte black felt and figured it was a new bike. Is that the same bike that you had at costa mesa crit (which you won I believe)? - Ernie

LOL!!! You'd think with all the Felt pros in the Springs area, I would have seen something already...

I thought about this all night after looking at your 'spy shot'...why would you be riding the new DA in a crit race? Unimaginable!!

I was popped quickly from the break after contesting a prime. I should know better that to mix it up with Health Net, Targettraining, etc... That morning's coffee crew romp had me aching on the first lap.

That is the same frame I raced at Costa Mesa, I was fotunate enough to get into a managable break in that race, and with only 3 guys to watch, it was a little easier than negotiating turn 4 with the whole feild. The fork and bars are all new now as well. We've pulled no punches in refining the new carbon frames.

I got a 28.3 mph average at Eldo even after getting shelled to the feild. It was on for sure. A couple of those guys join the afterwork loop on Thursday that rolls through Santiago Canyon, the skinny Health Net kid can crush the climbs flat. Amazing!

Perhaps I'll see you again out there, feel free to say hello before or after the race.

Did you make it this week?

Wow, another knee breaker, I got 25.5 miles in under 54 minutes. Nuts, who is driving that pace?

What are we at, like 2 days? At the end of this countdown are you going to post some pics or are you just teasing us?

yeah I was there. I had a crash at the UPS crit on sunday because a guy raised his arms after winning the race. He then bumped a guy who fell in front of me. I went down instantly at a jillion. Fortunately, just road rash and my bike was ok. Last nights eldo was just an easy night as a ref for the 4/5's. It was REAL interesting riding as the ref for that group! I'll be at costa mesa again in two weeks. Maybe see you there?

Here's a start:

I'm headed back "home" to Detroit to race the Detroit 6-Day on the track and close on my home I just sold there. I'm bummed I'll miss Costa Mesa, I like that course and might finally have the legs to stay in the 1,2 race.

I'm going to duck into the 4/5 race on the 29th at El Do for some speed work on the track bike. Come say hello, I'll be the pudgy guy on the Felt TK2.

Hmm, it was working before, perhaps the brass is on to me. I'll see if I can host some photos.

Stay tuned.

Based on the format of the other links at the site, I tried to fix it to www.feltracing.com/07/07_triathlon/larger/images/B2.jpg

But that didn't help. What a tease.

Well, the roadworthy Superbikes were alloy, not carbon, and the aspect ratio on nearly all of those tubes are illegal so little sense can be made of copying that bike. However, the wheel cut outs, the horizontal dropouts, the asymetric nature of a bicycle itself and their take on executing the most aerodynamic bicycle ever made certainly has merit to mimic.

What we have is unique with proven elements and falls within all of the strict rules and still keeps up with bikes like the airfoil, lotus, and SBIII.

Really, really big hype, I like it.

He's just stringing us along, isn't he? That's just plain mean.

That B2C is one sweet looking bike. I can't wait to see the real bike in person.

Is that what I think it is hidden behind/under the (blank) ?

Damn... I am ready to pony up $5K just to *see* the f-in thing!
