Safety
Your safety should be the top priority when you go for a ride. In short, make sure that you always use a helmet, high visibility clothing, and proper lights when riding at night-time.
Average price for Race bikes
If you want an acceptable Race bike you should know that the average price is 3350$. However, even if your budget is less than the average, you might still be able to get a top-quality Race bike. To sum up, when you purchase your bike, make sure to check if it has reviews, and also do some components research.
At the moment of the release date, Felt Z100 price was 809$. Doing a quick comparison, we notice that Z100 price is 314.09% lower than the average cost of a Race bike.
Average weight for Race bikes
On a deeper look, we notice that the average weight of a Race bike is 6.82 kg (15.04 lbs). An easier bike will give you a big advantage in climbs. However, a heavier bike can gain speed when you descend.
Weighing 10.08 kg (22.22 lbs), the Z100 model is much heavier than average. In other words, this model is 47.8% heavier than the average Race bike.
Internal Cable Routing
This bike has an internal cable routing. As a result, this helps to preserve the bike’s cables. No more cables around your bike.
Z100 components
Fork material
When it comes to the fork, this bike has a carbon one, so, it won’t add up to much weight to your bike. However, the price you have to pay for a carbon fork is considerably higher.
Wheels size
When it comes to wheels, the Z100 bike is equipped with the 700c aluminum model. These are the most popular wheels for road, aero, gravel, cyclocross, race, and gravel bikes. However, these wheels don’t perform so well when passing over obstacles.
Brakes
We ride faster and faster, so a good braking system is essential on a bike nowadays. The Z100 comes with Rim brakes. Rim brakes are cheaper than hydraulic brakes, and also easier to maintain. However, they have problems in wet conditions.
