Mark Hekman's Felt FC

Mark Hekman is a very fast Pro road racer and well known for his sprinting strength, but we may soon see this 6'4" athlete in a few triathlons. We have seen him compete in quite a few running events and word has it that he has spent time in the pool too with an appearance possibly at the full Beach to Battleship triathlon. Meanwhile though we decided to look closer at his Team Cleveland Clinic Felt FC.

The SRAM Force controls and Fizik bar tape have seen quite a bit of riding time.

The massive bottom bracket area of the Felt FC houses a BB30 assembly.

The 175mm SRAM Force crank arms have standard 53/39 rings and are matched to a 11-25 cassette in the back.
