Welcome to Feltracing!
Our history and achievements
Feltracing was founded by Jim Felt, a man with a genuine love of speed…
…a man who designed his very first triathlon frame for Johnny O’Mara – the star of Motorcross at “The O-Show” – then got big successes in 1990
…a man who also built a frame for Paula Newby Fraser– the triathlon legend had won three Ironman competitions and got Easton’s sponsor. His design finally helped her bring home the fourth Kona Ironman that year.
In the past, he also designed custom bikes for Ironman strongman Wolfgang Dietrich, mountain bike legend John Tomac, and Ken Souza – a duathlon’s winningest athlete.
In 1994, Felt incorporated with Answer Products to launch his brand, starting a 7-year relationship until 2000.
During this time, Feltracing bikes helped Nutra-Fig rider Chris Horner win the Athens Twilight Crit, the Lancaster Classic, and a stage win in a two-man sprint against US Postal’s Nate Reiss.
In 2001, Jim Felt relaunched the Feltracing brand in conjunction with Michael Müllmann and Bill Duehring.
While Michael Müllmann is the owner of the European powerful importer and distributor Sport Import, Bill Duehring is his family’s 3rd generation to work in cycling. As their work is in both mountain bikes and BMX, they had naturally come into contact for over 20 years before the relaunching of Feltracing.
The expertise Müllmann and Duehring brought, along with his hand-picked team of product managers and engineers, helped the brand access resources that it lacked previously.
Their product lines were then expanded into a full line of commuter bikes, cruisers, MTBs, MBX, even road and tri bikes. The total number of models were up to 140 distributed in 27 countries.
Technology
In 2008, Feltracing’s patented Equilink suspension technology was expanded into longer travel Trail and All-Mountain categories via their Redemption and Compulsion series.
In the same time, each of the core product lines was improved, such as Curbside 700c wheeled, Dispatch, and X-City models.
The biggest achievement was the development of the F1 Sprint frame to meet the new demand of some riders who wanted explosive power transfer.
Team
We feel very lucky to have chance to work with many wonderful teams, such as the TIAA-CREF/5280 Magazine junior development team, the Felt-VMG U23 Team (a developmental program for the next wave of American pros), and the H3O Pro Cycling Team.
It’s also an honor for us to support and be associated with numerous world-class cycling athletes. For example, Craig Walton, Cam Zink, Emma Snowsill, Jordan Rapp, and more.
