EQUILINK HAS LANDED!

At next-to-no personal risk to your trusty spy, I 'snuck' these photos out of Felt HQ to bring to you, snearing in the face of danger and with complete disregard for my personal safety. This is the only example of the Virtue utilizing the Equilink platform in Australia, and you are seeing it here at Felt Racing.

Today, we show you the ride, and you'll have to check back later for an honest description of how it rides, and also for details on how YOU can swing a leg over. For those loyal followers of Felt racing (yes, we can see how many there are!) you will be first to find out how you can have a test ride, before anyone else in Australia, to see what the hype is about. I'll just say now that it works, exciting me as much as the next rider! Stand by....! Its real, it works and its here to kick some ass!


Fresh out of the sample box, air freight from the land of the Felt. It even smelt fresh!


Check out that new XTR - it looks kinda funkAy don't it!



Carbon rear seat stays and carbon chainstays, all one piece, and looking tough as a very tough thing! No skate shoe rub during car park test, a good sign for a tucked in bum on the bike.
The benevolent Equilink and its prevailing technology and advantages. More on them soon!!

The snazziest little carbon plate cross brace behind the seat tube, present on all models of Virtue, from 1 through to 4. A very tidy piece of work, that is!




And that was the Virtue 2 featuring the Equilink technology. There will be more information and spy shots posted here of the 2007 range over the next few days... Some that have already caught my eye are the gold Straight shot, and the Jump shot standard with a gyro and cable discs! But one thing at a time, I'll endeavour to show you shots of the Virtue 3 and Virtue 4, as well as a report on how it rides!

Thanks for stopping by. Don't forget that the Full Gas Promotions 12 hour race is on at Werribee in 3 weeks!!!! Get your teams together, check the Full Gas Forum if you have any team needs or just want some entertainment, and make sure you have your entry in for the first proper endurance race of the 'series'. You know you'll be seeing the Felt Boys going head to head with the top victorian teams in the first shootout of the year, so you have to come down if only for that!!
