John Degenkolb’s 2012 Felt

24-year old German sprinter John Degenkolb of Team Argos-Shimano took 5 stages of the 2012 Vuelta a España on his F series Felt and we took a closer look at that slammed winning road bike.

This Felt looks very fast even if just leaning against a fence.

Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 controls.

Degenkolb rides a 150mm stem, to get very low.

The Di2 rear derailleur shows some battle scars.

No surprise really that there are Shimano components through and through on an Argos-Shimano team bike.

Plus a star for every win in the Vuelta.
