Felt has long been known for it's tri/TT line up, and in 2013 they'll make some big waves. The DA started out as a concept super bike, went to a $15,000 flagship bike, then for 2012 trickled all the way down to the DA4 at $3999.
The DA had another trick up it's sleeve, though. For 2013 it's going to be available in B12 guise for $3099 or as a frameset for $1760 with the same frame but a standard TT fork instead of the Bayonet 2 the rest of the line uses.
Looking at this bike, it's hard to argue it's value. Sporting a frame that as of 24 months ago was only available on a $15,000 bike is now available as a $3099 complete bike with Dura-Ace. WHAT?!
That's the big news in the line. A number of the models actually go DOWN in price. You read that right, DOWN IN PRICE. Seems like a shocker in an industry that's seen a lot of price increases the last couple of years.
Beyond the B12, the DA is now available as a DAC as well as the DA1. The DA1 still runs $4650 for the frameset, but the DAC comes in at $2580, offering up the DA frame and Bayonet 2 fork at a more reasonable price than that of the DA1.

MUCH more to come on the 2013 line up soon!
