Features | Inside Out
InsideOut is a revolutionary internally optimized molding
process that completely eliminates excess material, and therefore weight,
inside the frame tubes and junctions.
Placing polyurethane inserts inside the frame during the molding
process—especially at the bottom bracket and head tube area—and then
applying a precise amount of pressure
and heat results in perfectly formed tubes, inside and out. Dynamic Monocoque Construction Dynamic Monocoque Construction is a cutting-edge carbon fiber manufacturing technique that allows Felt to mold individual sections of the frameset and then join them with a special co-molding process. The primary advantage of DMC is that it allows each section of the frame to be optimized to meet the specific engineering demands of that particular section of the frame and to fully maximize the benefits of InsideOut technology. UHC Advanced Ultra Hybrid Carbon Advanced refers to the lightweight, stiff and durable blend of carbon fiber material used in the performance frames bearing the UHC Advanced label. Because the high modulus materials have a higher fiber to resin ratio, these frames are typically about 20% lighter than UHC Performance frames while remaining equally strong stiff. UHC Advanced offers the best combination of value and performance. |
