| 2008 Felt Z35 Carbon Road Bike
Product Overview
Embracing the quickly growing
sport of cycling and an influx of different body types/riding ambitions, Felt
designed a high performance carbon road bike with a relaxed geometry and coined
the phrase, “Relaxed Geometry, Pure Velocity”. The Z Series features all the
latest technology in bicycle/component design; however, the geometry is
compact, slightly more relaxed, and caters to a body position rotated a bit
more upright. In other words, no longer do you have to endure the pains of a
low profile ultra-aggressive design to enjoy the engineering breakthroughs of
the sport. The Z Series models give you everything you want in a race machine
and delivers the comfort so you can enjoy it all day long. Features include:
- Modular Monocoque High Modulus (HM) Carbon Frame and Fork: A
T700-based carbon blend, with reportedly 7.9 times greater tensile strength
than 3/2.5 Titanium, and stiffness 3.34 time greater than 6061 Aluminum. All Z
Series models feature relaxed geometry that allow the
rider to enjoy a comfortable position for long days in the saddle.
- Component Package: The Z35 wheels and components are designed for long
training rides over any road terrain. For a “pure racing” set-up, please
call Nytro for upgrades.
Z25 vs Z35
- The Z25 is constructed of higher grade carbon
fiber, resulting in a lower frame weight and greater stiffness.

The Z25 components are higher quality parts offering improved performance and
weight savings.
