Anyone used or run a Felt FR2 in the real world ? Ergo BB brakes.

Hard to find reviews or opinions aside from the alleged Nick Nuyens comments about the bikes not being very good.

A mate at work interested in one of these -

I had an FR5, with standard brakes and then with an Ultegra ... no problem with braking, my weight 87 kgs.


the problem could be the used brake pads and the brake caliper used with Sram levers .......I used Shimnao levers with standar RC4 pads for alumniun rim....no problem

I had a FR2 for a few years with Ultegra Di2. No issues at all, climbed well and no brake rub. The geo was racy and handled quick. The one negative is that with the rear brake under the bottom bracket, it would get gunked up in the wet.

Overall, great bike
