FRONT/REAR TRIANGLE - One of the many beauties of the Equilink system is its inherent compact size and minimal weight. Since the key suspension members (links) are contained just behind the seat tube, you will not see any interrupted tubing or over-designed monocoque applications. What you will see is a bullet-proof 6061 series aluminum front triangle. The top tube utilizes the latest in hydroform technology, allowing us to manipulate and strengthen tubing without adding unnecessary weight. A Felt proprietary Superlight double-butted downtube is met by an internally and externally-relieved hourglass head tube up top, and at the bottom by a two-piece, welded BB/lower pivot clevis, which has been machined from the inside out, shedding significant weight. The rear triangle is made from oversized and manipulated 6061 heat-treated aluminum. Cold forged dropouts and dual-row cartridge bearing attest to the fact that the Compulsion was designed to take a beating day in and day out.

SHOCKS - The Compulsion, like all frames utilizing Equilink technology, was designed to accept any brand of shock, around conventional shock lengths, without requiring specific internal factory settings. The Equilink suspension system was designed to offer the utmost in efficiency without requiring platform-valved shocks to mask design deficiencies (suspension-induced bobbing). However, if riders want to experiment with the different feel platform shocks can offer, the choice is theirs. At Felt, we believe that shock specification and tune-ability should be a choice - not a requirement.

LINKS & PIVOTS - The Compulsion features cold-forged links for strength and are CNC-machined for lightweight refinement. Identical and commonly-available sealed cartridge bearings are specified at all pivots, contributing to the simplicity of the Equilink system.
