Felt B16W Women-Specific Triathlon Bike 2012

The most affordable full carbon fiber TT/Tri bike in Felt’s 2012 line makes no compromises when it comes to performance. The foundation of the FITWoman B16W is the fast, efficient frameset that features Felt’s UHC Performance carbon fiber frame material, formed through Modular Monocoque Construction. Shimano Ultegra derailleurs and an FSA Gossamer EXO two-piece crank help ensure that every ounce of your energy propels you forward to a new best time. As a member of our FITWoman product, all parts and componets are carefully selected to accomodate a woman's anatomy.

Technology

Wind Tunnel Testing: This product directly benefited from advanced computer design work using Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) software from CD-Adapco as well as extensive wind tunnel testing to make them as aerodynamically efficient and technologically advanced as possible.

Internal Cable Routing: This indicates the use of flow-through internal cable routing. It reduces wind drag and prevents contaminants from entering and interfering with the function of brake or shifter cables.

FITWoman: FITWoman products are specifically designed and engineered for women cyclists. All Felt FITWoman products include a detailed combination of women’s design-specific geometry, tube length, frame material lay-up, anatomical component selection and more.

InsideOut: InsideOut is a revolutionary internally optimized molding process that completely eliminates excess material, and therefore weight, inside the frame tubes and junctions. Placing polyurethane inserts inside the frame during the molding process—especially at the bottom bracket and head tube area—and then applying a precise amount of pressure and heat results in perfectly formed tubes, inside and out.

Modular Monocoque Construction: An advanced carbon fiber manufacturing technique that allows Felt to mold individual sections of the frameset and then join them together. The main advantage of MMC is that it allows each section to be optimized to meet the specific engineering demands of that particular section of the frame.

UHC Performance: UHC Performance is a T700-based blend of raw carbon fiber, which has a tensile strength that’s 7.9 times greater than 3/2/5 titanium and a stiffness rating that’s 3.34 times greater than 6061 aluminum. UHC Performance brings the unmatched performance of a Felt carbon fiber bike to more affordable pricing levels than ever before.
