| 2008 Felt B2 Carbon Triathlon / Time Trial Bike
Product Overview The B2 is the exact same high quality, wind cheating carbon frame as the B2 Pro. However, its less expensive components and wheels reduce the complete bike price. Nonetheless, the B2 is still a fantastic choice for racers looking for an incredible frame with room to upgrade the components and wheels at a later time. This bike frame is more than capable of competing with the best in the business and offers the ride quality and power efficiency that all racers seek. Specific features include: - Modular Monocoque Ultra High Modulus (UHM) Carbon: A premium quality carbon blend, reportedly 27% stiffer than High Modulus Carbon and nearly 20% lighter. Even when using minimal material (to keep weight as low as possible) the B2 still delivers incredible stiffness and durability. - Revolutionary Bayonet Steering System: This design moves the steerer outside of the frame, improving steering stiffness 60% over a regular fork, while significantly reducing the aerodynamic drag on the bike. - Internal Cable Routing: Designed to smooth air flow across the frame. - Chainstay Mounted Rear Brake: Designed to hide the rear break from wind flow across the top of the rear wheel. - Front and Rear Wheel Cut-outs: Designed to reduce the turbulence created by spinning wheels. - Component Package: The B2 wheels and components designed for durability and speed. They will withstand many training miles and also perform in competition. For a "pure racing" set-up, please call Nytro for upgrades.
B2 vs B2 Pro - B2 Pro and the B2 are the same frames (with different color schemes). - The B2 Pro Components are higher quality parts offering improved aerodynamics and weight savings. - The B2 Pro Zipp wheelset is more aerodynamic and lighter.
