I’m taking the plunge on a road bike. I have a QR tri bike so am looking for a good value roadie for a second bike. Can get a sweet deal on a 2006 Felt F5C. Any thoughts on this rig?
I just bought an end-of-the-year treat for myself - an '06 F4C - after going without a roadie for a few years. For either model, you can’t get a better specc’ed out carbon bike for the prices Felt charges, and the end of season prices are great. Go for it.
I’m liking the frame a lot - the F4C is responsive and fast and the carbon is much more forgiving than the aluminum I’m used to. The wheelset isn’t wonderful on either model, but to use the bike for group rides, the trainer, and fun, it can’t be beat.
Really depends on how well it fits…
This looks like a good deal on the F4c:
