Spec'd with \u003cstrong\u003eShimano Dura-Ace Di2 R9250 12-speed\u003c\/strong\u003e electronic shifting and Dura-Ace hydraulic disc brakes, plus Shimano's own WH-R9270 carbon wheels, it arrives complete without any obvious upgrade gaps. Victory Bicycle Studio acquired the remaining FRD inventory in the United States, which means this bike is available here at pricing that would not otherwise be possible at this spec level.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFelt's race geometry keeps the FR FRD composed at speed and confident on descents without asking riders to compromise position for comfort. The Vision Metron 5 ACR integrated one-piece bar and stem cleans up airflow at the front end and stiffens the cockpit — a pro-level component that ships standard on this build. \u003cstrong\u003eHandlebar width varies by frame size\u003c\/strong\u003e: 45–54 cm frames use a 400 mm bar, and 56–61 cm frames use 420 mm, both with a 125 mm drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWho It's For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompetitive road cyclists and racers who want Shimano's top-tier electronic drivetrain and wheels in a single purchase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRiders who prioritize stiffness, aerodynamic integration, and handling precision over endurance compliance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAthletes who have done a professional bike fit and are comfortable in an aggressive, race-oriented position\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuyers looking for a rare, limited-quantity opportunity on remaining U.S. FRD inventory\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConsider a different bike if you want an endurance geometry, rim brakes, or a more upright fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat to Look For\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIntegrated cockpit fit:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Vision Metron 5 ACR one-piece bar\/stem is not adjustable the way a standard stem is.
