This is going to be so good.....😁

After years of battles in gravel racing,
It’s time to unleash a new weapon.

Stoked to try my new Vision wheels with my Felt Bicycles FX. The new SC 48 i25 wheelset features a carbon rim, characterized by a 48mm aero profile and a 25mm internal hooked channel optimized for wide tyres, making this wheel a hybrid product, properly intended both for road and gravel use. For the price it is a great versatile wheelset at only 1594g.

So happy to be part of this exciting launch with Felt Bicycles! The new Felt website is now open featuring the new Nexar.

ENGINEERED FOR THE 99%

NEXAR represents a new era for FELT where aero no longer means compromise.

Where an aero bike is designed not just for the strongest 1% of racers but engineered to work for the 99% of the performers on the market.

NEXAR is unique balance between, AERO, LIGHTWEIGHT and PERFECT FIT.

Great night at Trek Bicycle Store/Pro City Racing last night where we celebrated cyclocross with Cross Club Victoria and thanked all the folks who took part and donated their time to participate and help out. Huge shout out to Kelly Guest, Bill Fry, and Scott Mitchell for making this happen.

It was also a great opportunity to thank the folks at the UVic Cycling Club for getting their crew to help at the BC Cyclocross Championships. We gave them a bit of money to put a down payment on their new team kit for next year :)

Big thanks to Fernwood Pizza Company for supporting the event and helping us feed some hungry cyclists.

Please help us find and retrieve Cycling BC’s event equipment trailer, which was stolen at the Jordie Lunn Bike Park recently. We had some of our own event equipment stored in that trailer and would appreciate any effort to locate and retrieve. Please contact West Shore RCMP if you have any leads or sightings.
