2007 Felt Z65 Aluminum Road Bike
Product Overview
Embracing the quickly growing sport of cycling and an influx of different body types and riding ambitions, Felt designed a performance aluminum 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 give you everything you want in a performance bike and delivers the comfort so you can enjoy it all day long. Features include:
