Felt AR FRD

The AR FRD is a dedicated race machine designed for speed and efficiency. It excels in competitive road racing, criteriums, and fast-paced group rides where aerodynamics and power transfer are the primary priorities.

The integrated cockpit is designed for maximum aerodynamic efficiency, which can make stem and handlebar adjustments more involved than on a standard bike. While it offers a clean, sleek aesthetic, we recommend having a professional bike fitter help you dial in your position before finalizing the setup.

The SRAM RED eTap AXS system includes hydraulic disc brakes, which provide consistent, powerful stopping power regardless of weather conditions. The wireless electronic shifting is also fully sealed, ensuring reliable gear changes even when riding in rain or grit.

The Felt AR FRD has a permissible total weight limit of 129 kg (284 lbs). This includes the weight of the rider, the bike itself, and any gear or accessories you are carrying.

Yes, the Zipp 454 NSW wheels feature a unique 'Sawtooth' rim profile specifically engineered to reduce side-force and improve stability in crosswinds. They are designed to handle gusty conditions much better than traditional deep-section wheels.

The bike comes equipped with 25mm tires, which are optimized for speed and aerodynamics on this frame. While you may have some clearance for slightly wider rubber, the frame's geometry is tuned specifically for this width, so we recommend sticking close to the stock size to maintain the intended handling characteristics.
