Bottom line
The Felt TK2 and TK3 models proved to be high-quality options for starter track riders or as a racy option for the fixed gear street rider. Front forks are drilled for a brake. Casual riders and messengers both reported that riding a TK on the street was a fast, exciting and rewarding experience. Racers said there was no need for upgrades from a TK when racing in the velodrome. An expert felt that the TK2 was not boutique or flashy, but a good representation of a reliable, high-performance option in its class. TK1s kick up the quality and price a few notches with a full-carbon, aero frameset.Expert Reviews
