Triathlon racing is brutal. You sweat. You suffer. The wind and heat racks your body. The competition is relentless. And, you push yourself to the limit. Sandwiched between a testing swim and a brutal run, the bike is where you’ll make your move. Your muscles scream as you push them harder than ever before. Your lungs ache and burn furiously. But all this cant quench your fire. Triathlon racing ignites you and you want more.
Every racecourse is different, with varying elevation gains, road curvature, and, of course, an endless variety of wind, roiling the course. After endless CFD modeling, wind tunnel testing, and real-world riding of prototypes, countless new designs were scrutinized, updated, and tested again,over and over. The result is a bike worthy of carrying on the legendary IA name, one also featuring the improved performance that disc brakes bring to the riding experience. It’s not merely fast in a straight line — it’s faster in all conditions.
Disc brakes are the best means of controlling a bicycle. Period. Plus, they perform best in adverse weather conditions. Wherever the road takes you, and in whatever conditions you find yourself, the disc brake-equipped IA gives you the confidence to tackle any racecourse. To accommodate the added stopping forces provided by disc brakes, the IA features thru-axles rather than traditional quick-release skewers. It’s a proven design that provides a more secure interface between the bicycle frame and the wheel, which also enhances the stiffness of the frame-and-wheel connection.
The IA comes equipped with Felt’s integrated CALpac 2.0. This storage unit features ample space for all of the riding essentials to which a rider needs quick and easy access. Likewise, the IA includes the BTSpac storage device, located behind the seat tube. This unit is ideal for a flat tire repair kit and/or on-the-go tool kit, or any other items that a rider doesn’t require while pedaling. It’s shape has been aerodynamically optimized for the IA, creating no aero drag penalty.
Want the most aerodynamically efficient carbon frame around, but prefer the classic feel of rim brakes? This is the race bike for you.
