The B16 by Felt is a 2014 triathlon/TT bike with Shimano components. In time trials and triathlons drafting isn't allowed, so bikes built for these races are designed to be as aerodynamic as possible. The bikes usually have "aero-bars" instead of the standard road bike drop-bars. Aero-bars come straight out forward from the frame, providing a position where the arms are low and close together. These unique handlebars along with the frame geometry put the rider in a low, tucked position that aids in aerodynamics and power. One difference to look out for between Time Trial and Tri-bikes is the seat tube angle. Tri-bikes tend to have a steeper seat tube angle to take stress off of the hamstrings in order to save them for the run.

00 Is a great bang for the buck bike and after 500 miles
Got this bike for 1499.00 Is a great bang for the buck bike and after 500 miles, I couldnt be happier. Looks really nice with my 60/88 wheelset on it.Only problem I had was It came dirty and clearly has been ridden. Demo perhaps? Cleaned up nicely and only issue I have is a creaking from the headtube area when out of the saddle.
