Felt Bicycles Broam 40 - 2023

Who says that you can’t have your cake and eat it, too? Meet the Broam, our most capable road bike ever. It’s an all-purpose, drop-bar beast that’s equally at home on pavement, dirt trails, and gravel roads. Dual-wheel compatibility? Check. Mounts for racks and fenders? Check. A comfortable ride quality for all-day pedaling? Check. For as long as people have been riding bikes, there have been people riding bikes over long distances, traveling across the land, and experiencing the unique perspective that only pedaling can provide. That long heralded mystique thrives in the Broam. It’s everything you want in a road bike, and then some. Just make sure to bring along your sense of adventure.

Different wheel sizes give you the freedom to run whatever size or type of tire you wish. That’s why we made the Broam compatible with both 650b and 700c wheel sizes. The Broam comes standard with 700c hoops, the traditional size for road bikes. They can accommodate up to 45mm-wide tires, giving you the versatility to select your optimal rubber for whatever route you have in mind. If you opt to switch out your stock wheels for a set of 650 alternatives, you can fit tires that are up to 2.1 inches wide.

Disc brakes are the new standard for drop-handlebar bikes in all riding conditions. They provide more stopping power, greater modulation, and more consistent performance than rim brakes, especially when the weather turns nasty. Complementing the Broam’s disc brakes are 12mm thru-axles, which provide a more secure interface over traditional quick-release skewers, along with better stiffness for quicker acceleration, better handling, and crisper shifting. Maximum control over any terrain, all day long. That’s what the Broam is about.
