Yes the frame does look like it was designed well, but personally I'd take a Trek Fuel series over it any day. The Fuel has been ranked one of the best trail bikes for a while. The geometry (in my opinion) is one of the best I've ridden for a single track bike. Really I just see more value in an Ex5 over the Virtue due to the frame technologies, Sram series drive-train, and suspension. I can't imagine the ride quality could compare between the two, but I'll just have to wait till I ride one I guess. Last I'd have to disagree that Trek does the same. Just take some time to actually look at the two companies, and their bike line ups. What you're paying for and all that stuff. I've taken some time to look at Felt, the Equilink looks like a great set up. Their Fast set up is nice too, but I'll still have to stay with the Treks.
It's typical for Felt. When you pay money for a Felt your looking at cool paint, crap components. I can't believe Pinkbike actually did an article on one of these bikes. Really Alivio front d on a $2,000 bike? Do yourself a favor go and get a $1,300 Trek. You'll get better components (MUCH BETTER), and you can take the money you save and upgrade the shock to something better. Wham there you go 2gs well spent.
This thing is a monster!! Love the white, but it's probably not going to stay anywhere near that colour for long. Sick bb set up they've got going on also.
Pretty sick how they did all of that. Can't wait to see what they have coming!!
