"The all-new bike replaces the long-running AR, a platform that has been part of Felt's identity for the better part of two decades. This isn't a light facelift or a new paint job meant to stretch another model year out of the old mold."
"Felt says the top-tier NEXAR FRD weighs a claimed 14.2lbs in a size 54. For a modern disc-brake aero road bike with fully internal routing and a one-piece cockpit, that's a serious claim."
"The company says the NEXAR is 5% faster than the previous AR and tests within 4 watts of the fastest competing aero road bike at 40kph."
"According to Felt, the work started where it usually does on an aero bike: the front end. The brand says it focused on slimming the head tube width, cleaning up the top tube/down tube junction, and improving airflow in the wake behind the head tube."
The Felt NEXAR replaces the long-standing AR model, representing a complete redesign rather than a simple update. Weighing 14.2lbs, the NEXAR FRD features a premium carbon frame and is 5% faster than its predecessor. The design focuses on improving aerodynamics, particularly at the front end, by refining the head tube and enhancing airflow. The NEXAR maintains the aesthetic of an aero bike while prioritizing performance and rider comfort, aiming to meet the demands of modern cyclists.
