Felt Bicycles IA 3
Details
With race pedigree and cutting edge tech to spare, Felt's IA 3 takes the sting out of the bike leg and rockets you towards T2. Taking full advantage of Felt's wind tunnel expertise, the heart of this triathlon bike is an exceptionally aero, high-modulus carbon frame with deep-section frame tubes and Felt's own integrated Dagger stem and fork to pierce the wind. Felt provides a pair of their own carbon deep-section rims and fast-rolling TTR tires to relentlessly trim down your ride time. Shimano's Dura-Ace drivetrain provides the speed and efficiency that elite riders demand, and crisp, positive shifts at a moment's notice. And, since a comfortable rider is a strong rider, the IA 3 comes spec'd with a supportive ISM Tri saddle, a completely adjustable Felt Aero Tri seatpost, and Felt's carbon Dagger Ultimate base bar and f-bend extensions.
Felt's MMC (Modular Monocoque Construction) method is an advanced carbon manufacturing process that allows Felt to mold individual sections of a frame (see image above) prior to assembly. This allows each frame section to be optimized for its individual requirements before being fused together. The result is a frame with completely integrated joints that offer superior strength, durability and a refined appearance.
