Edict

The Edict is Felt's cross-country full-suspension racer, and its signature is FAST — Felt Active Stay Technology. Instead of a conventional pivoting rear linkage, FAST uses carbon's spring properties: a leaf-spring-style seatstay combined with a single lower pivot delivers 100 mm of travel while keeping the back end light, laterally stiff and pedal-efficient. The redesign trimmed a full pound, added 15% stiffness, went 1x-specific and dropper-compatible, slackened the head angle 1.5 degrees, and opened clearance for 2.4in tires — a modern XC race bike that climbs like a hardtail but tracks like a full-susser.
