Felt Edict 5 review

Jul 2018 · Guy Kesteven

Some heavy bits but naturally rapid, with sorted suspension and a very upgradable carbon frame. Buy if you want a sorted entry-level bike with the option to upgrade elements

Highs
  • Excellent, lightweight, stiff, future-proofed carbon frame

  • Supple yet supportive and efficient ‘set and forget’ suspension

  • Decent transmission and wheel pack

Lows
  • Heavy fork and basic brakes
