2018 Felt Bicycles AR3
Like all models in the AR Series, the AR3 is built to perform in the most demanding race conditions. Featuring the most advanced aerodynamics in Felt’s history, the AR3’s unique frame was developed with computational fluid dynamics software and honed inside the wind tunnel. Constructed from Felt’s unique UHC Performance carbon fiber, the AR3 offers incredible pedaling stiffness and efficiency paired with a high-performance ride quality. Equipped with a Shimano Ultegra R8000 drivetrain for lightning-quick shifts, Devox 55 carbon wheelset, and Easton EC70 Aero handlebar and stem, everything about the AR3 is optimized for speed. The AR3 also includes Felt’s unique Vibration Reducing Aero Road carbon seat post, which boasts a “flip” design that makes the bike ideal for both road racing and even triathlons.

Comments:
This is a great bike for the avid cyclist and those looking to race. Coming from a Cervelo I have found this bike to be as comparable in terms of frame stiffness and and comfortable ride. The Ultegra DI2 group set functions really well. It is almost cheating how well the gears change. You will not be disappointed with this agile bike, whether for the local Sunday hit out with the boys or mixing it up with the summer evening crits.
