Cheapest and best felt frames
does anyone know of a place i can buy a legit aluminum FELT road bike frame that is tuff , im scared to buy a full carbon bike frame because if it cracks im going to explode , my cities roads are not always smooth and i do beat on my bike a little bit , i ride every day and i really like the look and the name owning a felt , to me , is kind of like the Ferrari of bikes , any thoughts or suggestions , on an affordable felt bike , im looking for a frame , maybe to save some dollars
i have seen some on craigslist under 600$ i think thats a good price , compared to brand new at 4, 000$$$ yikes , i have decent 750 tires and some parts i dont care if i put 10 dollar shifters on it im going more for the frame and ride angle, because they seem fast , i really dont want a diamond back definitely not a schwinn ,uuuuhg , again i do like that name and quality , im sure i could just slap a felt sticker on a roadmaster lol , but any suggs will be appreciated

Technically, Colnago V1-R is the Ferrari of bikes, since it's actually made in cooperation with Ferrari.
Also, I don't think you have to worry about carbon cracking and failing from normal everyday use. I have over 4k on mine so far this year and it hasn't exploded yet.

Full carbon 2015 Felt Z5 here and I am loving it. No issues at all with the carbon and I commute and do longer road rides with it.
As far as it being the Ferrari of bikes, uh, no. Felt makes a really good product and for the money, is often hard to beat. As it being compared to a Ferrari, there is nothing to compare.
