I purchased this Felt ZW5 from a bike shop in November 2020. It was in very good used condition at the time as it appeared to be a store floor model. It arrived with some scuffs on the shifters and the seatpost.
The shifters and rear derailleur have scuffs and scratches. I used this on some rollers in a garage and rolled right off of them into the concrete wall next to me. This was around June 2021 and I promptly got the bike checked out at a bike shop in Brooklyn to clear it to ride again. I rode a short ride after to be sure and then took it out for a boiling hot ride in July. I’m sorry for the scuffs and scratches as I know they look unsightly. The Lizard Skins bar tape will likely need replacing as they have eroded from my glove use on hot days. The wheels are Mavic Kysrium Elite and are super light. The bike is ~7.7kg/17 pounds.
Regarding fit, this is a woman’s fit bike according to the manufacturer. I am 170cm/5’7 with an inseam of about 84cm/33in. My torso is shorter, so I struggled a bit with the reach and was overextended. If you have longer arms/a longer torso than I, this may be comfortable for you. If the colour scheme suits, I think this would also be fine for a man to ride.
Since buying, I have completed many rides including several gran fondos. I have had the bike serviced by a mechanic in October 2022. I haven’t ridden it since then because I purchased my current dream bike, the Liv Langma Advanced Pro.
