Nov 2014 · Guy Kesteven

Felt’s most capable, enjoyable descender yet, but still more climbing and XC orientated than its travel would suggest

Felt Compulsion LT3 Review

Nov 2013

Many bikes get tossed into the ‘enduro’ or ‘all-mountain’ category because they sport six inches of travel and yet they don’t possess the slack geometry, stout frame and burly parts to really excel on prolonged technical riding. The Compulsion LT, happily, is one bike that fits the bill. The Compulsion LT is no pretender.
