Fast yet comfortable mile-muncher, only let down on steep ups and downs by slightly outdated geometry

Felt Decree FRD (2016) review - MBR

Dec 2015 · Alan Muldoon

The Felt Decree FRD is a featherweight trail machine that is let down by unpredictable suspension and a cramped cockpit

Highs
  • Stiff, lightweight frame design with a Gucci build kit. Having the same shock tube and carbon rear ends on all five models guarantees the same suspension response, regardless of price.

Lows
  • Narrow 720 mm handlebar, rangy 70mm stem. Also, the sticky rear suspension and lack of Bottomless Tokens in the fork made it impossible to get a good feel for the Decree's handling.
