Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Photos of the Felt F5 w/ SRAM Force

So I posted photos before of my bike before the bar tape and pedals were put on. Now that stuff is on there and I've ridden the bike and I'm absolutely in love. My old OCR's got nothing on my new bike. Anyway, I went out in the sun and took some pics of it. I needed to clean it up and wax it but was too tired so these will have to do.

I like the tape. Good choice. Looking good. Don't really like the white pedals though. I would've gone black/graphite. I'm guessing they're Sprint Laneo? I would've gone with the gray normal Sprints. But that's just me.

Yeah they are Sprint Laneo. I was gonna go with a white saddle, white bar tape, and white pedals but it didn't work out that way so the pedals are now a bit out of place. Luckily, they're normally hidden under my feet so you can't see them. They don't look as bad as I thought they were going to though.

I definitely agree with your opinion. Felt makes sweet sweet bikes...yours being one of them.

Vittorio Rubino Pro's. I like them quite a bit but haven't ridden on too many others.

Your F5 looks really good. The color scheme of the frame looks very similar to my wife's Z65.

The creepy part about this is that I'm pretty sure I have the same bike pump too. Your wife's bike looks very nice.

Want to hear something really creepy? MY LBS just ordered the same pedals for this bike
After viewing your pics, I think I will install the Keo Elle pedals that I purchased for another bike.
