Felt Bicycles is a renowned brand that has established itself in the Cycling industry. With a rich history spanning over four decades, Felt has continuously pushed the boundaries of innovation and quality in Bike manufacturing. The company's commitment to craftsmanship is evident in their meticulously designed Bicycles, which blend cutting-edge technology with sleek aesthetics. Felt offers a diverse range of Cycles, catering to various disciplines such as Road Cycling, Mountain Biking, Triathlon, and even Electric Bikes. We got the opportunity to test ride the Felt Verza Speed 50 and here is what we thought.
Weight: 12.2kgs
Usage: Fitness/Commute
The Felt Verza Speed 50 is a lightweight and functional Hybrid Bicycle best suited for commuting and fitness rides.
The F-Lite Aluminium frame on the Felt Verza Speed 50 is built to be lightweight with a premium quality. The tubes are butted which means that excess material is removed from low stress areas of the frame, thus reducing weight without affecting durability or ride quality. The frame tubes are shaped to offer a riding experience that remains stiff and smooth.
The Hi-Tensile Chromoly Steel fork on this Bicycle gives you confident steering control. This composite fork on the Verza Speed 50 is strong and can handle hard bumps on urban roads.
This Hybrid Bicycle has a lightweight alloy frame comes in 4 frame sizes
The Felt Verza Speed 50 which we test rode came in a full Metallic Silver colour frame with minimal Dark Grey and White as the secondary colours for graphics. The gloss finish paint job quality was top notch and made the frame look shiny. The thin seat stays and chain stays made the Bicycle look sleek. The graphics and design were simple yet elegant.

The Felt Verza Speed 50 features a full Shimano drivetrain. The 3-Speed Tourney derailleur at the front and 8-Speed Altus at the rear are entry to mid-level but were super smooth in shifting and is ideal for commuting and fitness rides on urban roads. The 3x8-Speed Shimano trigger shifters were basic and had an easy spring action.

The braking components are classic V-Brakes on the Felt Verza Speed 50. The Tektro V-Brakes at the front and rear were reliable and balanced during the test ride. The reaction time from the levers to the brakes was quick. These brakes were good enough for wet and dry urban roads and the quality and performance of these brakes were definitely on par with entry-level Mechanical Disc brakes.
The Alloy handlebar was wide and made sure the rider has an open chested riding posture. The handlebar being flat without any raiser made the riding posture slightly aggressive.

The 700c wheels on the Verza Speed 50 offers a Road Bicycle like rolling speed and efficiency. This Cycle features a double wall aluminium alloy rims so they are strong enough to take a pounding on the road day-after-day. The Kenda Khan 700x35C tires are wider than you get on a drop bar Road Bicycle so they offer a little more cushioning for a smoother ride on uneven road surfaces. These Kenda tires feature a tread pattern that offers much better traction in the wet conditions than simple slick tires alongside puncture protection to significantly reduce the chances of a flat.
The extra padded comfort saddle was ergonomically designed and had a lot of cushioning to keep the rider sore free.

This Hybrid Bicycle is lightweight thanks to its Alloy frame and helps ride efficiently. The Kenda tires are fast rolling and the Tektro V-brakes are quick to react and powerful. With elegant graphics and a gloss finish paint job this Bicycle is premium not only in performance but in looks as well. Priced at Rs.43,990(as on 7th June 2023) the Felt Verza Speed 50 is an ideal choice for anyone looking to buy a Bicycle for commuting and fitness purposes.
