Description:
FELT BREED EXPERT SRAM RIVAL XPLR
Gravel as you have never FELT. The new BREED EXPERT is designed for fast gravel roads, rough terrain, long-distance racing, and everyday riders who want a modern carbon gravel race platform with electronic shifting.
Built on FELT’s gravel performance platform, the BREED EXPERT combines aerodynamic efficiency, optimized weight, and refined geometry to create a fast, stable, and controlled ride when the course gets unpredictable.
With a UD carbon frame, UD carbon fork, FELT ultralight one-piece carbon cockpit, SRAM Rival AXS hydraulic disc brakes, and SRAM Rival XPLR AXS wireless shifting, the BREED EXPERT delivers a high-performance gravel build at a more accessible level.
Three Pillars of BREED Speed
Aero
10.5%
Drag reduction versus the previous BREED generation, supported by refined tube profiles, reduced front-end volume, lower frame stack, and lower seat stays.
Weight
8.3 kg
Listed complete bike weight with a UD carbon frame, UD carbon fork, integrated carbon cockpit, and race-ready gravel components.
Fit & Control
54 mm
Up to 54 mm front tire clearance, up to four bottle mounts, dropper compatibility, and modern gravel geometry for high-speed stability.
Why Buy This Bike?
Purpose-built gravel racing platform
BREED is not a road bike adaptation or an adventure bike with racing graphics. It is a dedicated gravel race platform built for speed, control, and durability on modern race courses.
Carbon performance, practical value
The BREED EXPERT uses a UD carbon frame and fork with FELT's one-piece integrated carbon cockpit for a clean, efficient, race-inspired package.
Wireless XPLR shifting
SRAM Rival XPLR AXS provides crisp wireless electronic shifting with a gravel-focused 10-46T cassette and a 42T crankset for fast riding over mixed terrain.
Ready for rough race days
Vision SC45 i23 wheels, Continental Terra Competition Trail Grip 700x45c tires, hydraulic disc brakes, and generous clearance make this bike ready for fast and unpredictable gravel.
Proven BREED DNA
FELT developed BREED around the demands of U.S. gravel racing: speed on fast courses, durability over rough surfaces, race-focused geometry, and the autonomy required for long events. The platform's racing legacy provides the foundation for this new generation.
