Felt Bicycles

Lightweight carbon frame, check. Fast 29-inch wheels, check. Efficient suspension, check. Felt's Virtue 3 checks all the boxes for a great all-mountain bike. It starts with 130mm of Felt's Equilink suspension that smooths big and small bumps with equal ease, yet remains unaffected by pedaling forces. Up front, the 140mm-travel RockShox fork tames the rocks and roots so you can point and go. The big 29-inch WTB Speed Disc rims with meaty Schwalbe tires fly over obstacles and dial up the fun meter. Adding to that is a great 2 x 10-speed drivetrain from Shimano while Shimano discs dole out loads of power. And to complete its all-mountain resume, KS's eTen dropper post lets you drop in on new lines, attack the trail, and keep your flow.
