Tour de France podium bike. Lewes prices. Your move.
This is the bike that wins stages at the Tour. The one the pros choose when everything matters. Factor's Ostro VAM is lighter, faster, and more aero than anything else out there, and this one's sitting in our shop instead of racing across France. Someone's loss is your gain.
The numbers:
Sub-7kg frame. 7 watts faster than the old model. 250 grams lighter. After 40km, you're a dot in the distance to everyone else. That's not marketing speak: that's wind tunnel data and computer modeling that cost more than most bikes.
What you're getting:
This specific build is absolutely loaded:
- Frame: Factor Ostro VAM, Size 58cm (White Chrome)
- Groupset: SRAM Red AXS - wireless shifting, flawless performance
- Crankset: SRAM Red, 172.5mm arms, 50/37 chainrings with integrated power meter
- Wheelset: Boyd Podium 55mm carbon clinchers - fast, stable, bombproof
- Tires: Continental GP5000 30mm - the best road tire ever made
- Stem: 130mm, 44° rise (or drop, depending on how you measure)
- Seatpost: Setback design for proper fit
- Extras: TiBolts throughout (because titanium hardware on a bike like this just makes sense)
Why this bike exists:
Factor set out to build the lightest aero bike in the pro peloton. Something that could win sprints, conquer cobbled classics, and summit climbs with the best. They succeeded. The Ostro VAM is an aero weapon that weighs less than most climbing bikes. Every tube, every transition, every surface was modeled dozens of times to find free speed. Wind tunnel verified. Tour de France proven.
The ride? Cat-like agility meets unflappable high-speed stability. On-rails cornering. Mighty stiffness that doesn't flinch under WorldTour watt bombs, with greater compliance than you'd expect from an aero frame. This is where art meets science, decades of engineering combined with decades of riding, iterated until perfect.
Built for:
- Crushing group rides where egos get bruised
- Winning your local crit (or at least looking like you could)
- Gran fondos where you want to be both fast and comfortable
- Long solo efforts on the Cape May-Lewes Loop
- Making everyone at the coffee shop stop ask questions
