Ahhh...beautiful bike....
And you ride where I ride...I'd recognize that sage brush and bench anywhere....if I were you I wouldn't leave that beauty unattended!
Way to support a local (Irvine) company too....I imagine my next bike will be a Felt....
Awesome!

Hello everyone-- I just took delivery of my new bike. It is a Felt F2 with Di2. Later this morning I will take her out for a short (30 mile) shakedown cruise. My camera is MIA but here is a picture from the Felt website. I will take some pictures with my Blackberry but the quality will be shoddy at best.
Nice bike v.

Gulp! I'm getting that feeling I need another bike. (Please make it go away $$)
That is really nice. Played around with a Di2 bike up at BG in Indy last weekend. Warming up a bit to the E-shift.

1. Is that your Volksvagen Beetle?
2. Do you live on Evergreen Terrace? I know the family that lives at 742.

What? Part of the joy of owning a bicycle is finicking with cable adjustments! Come on.... this is like riding a bike on Nintendo Wii!
Just kidding! It would be ultra cool if it came in stealth matte grey scheme like that Veedub in the background.

Just thought the BF members subscribed to this thread should know that so far I have 700 miles on the first and only charge on my battery. The battery test light is still solid green. My first ride on this bike was May 22 today is June 12.

UPDATE: Today is JUNE 27 I have 1,300 miles (87 hours) also includes several hundred extra shifts in the shop showing customers how Di2 works. This is all on my first and only charge on my battery. The green battery light is now blinking (50% of battery life reached).

The only people who "poo poo" Di2 are those who have not ridden it or just can't afford it. The stuff works and works better than any other group on the market hands down.

Given all your proposed changed to the original bike and the fact that you will be selling off a lot/all of what you are taking off, wouldn't it be much simpler and economical to just buy the frameset and the Di2 deraillers/battery/briefter in addition the specific parts you wanted to add?
