TECHNOLOGICALLY SUPERIOR 

To be faster in all fields you need the best technology. It's that simple. FACTOR Bikes The story has been applied and a bicycle has been designed in which lightness and aerodynamics converge in a singular whole.

Welcome to the universe of the Ostro FACTOR.

In the development center that the British firm has in Norfolk They set the goal of making a bicycle that could do everything. A product that stood out in the ports more demanding, I put my elbows in the sprints more extreme and would even serve to ride in the hardness of the cobbled roads. Hours of meetings with the team's engineers and riders Israel Start-Up-Nation resulted in the Oster FACTOR.

Basically the Ostro It is an all-terrain bicycle that combines the characteristics of the FACTOR One, the signature aero bike, and the O2 FACTOR Vam, your super light climber.

The results of the Ostro They have not been long in coming. We are talking about a bicycle that he used Dan Martin to add a new victory in the Tour of Italy 2021 in the high mountain stage ending in Sega di Ala, also in which the sprinter swept, André Greipel, in the massive sprint of the Vuelta a Andalucía or the one that the entire team used in the last and brutal Paris-Roubaix. The Ostro It doesn't come down at any level.

LIGHTNESS GUARANTEE

Discuss FACTOR Bikes is talking about lightness. His paintings top the international reviews in terms of lightness.

As reported FACTOR, the weight of the painting is 780 gr. in size 54. This is achieved with the exclusive carbon released for the O2 FACTOR Vam and that is achieved through advanced materials such as TeXtreme, Nippon Graphite fiber and boron fiber and its combination with painting Flicker. In the Ostro A frame has been obtained that is only 100 grams heavier than that of its climbing sister.

AERODYNAMICS

As we have mentioned, lightness does not go against aerodynamics in the FACTOR Ostro. The multiple simulations computer science and the multiple tests in the wind tunnel are key to developing the least resistant product and the results have been made evident in the Ostro.

The shapes of the main tube, with strong aerodynamic profile medium rope, are complemented by a fork of wide stance which reduces turbulence caused by the rotation of the front wheel spokes with a tire clearance of up to 32 mm. A set that, together with the thin folded seat straps, provides that plus stiffness to this bike with an aerodynamic spirit that excels on cobblestone terrain.

FULL INTEGRATION

Total aerodynamic integration is achieved without anything generating resistance and reducing turbulence caused by the wind. The Oyster FACTOR take advantage of the set of fully integrated handlebar BLACK INC with internal cable guide that provides fundamental aerodynamic support. It is a handlebar that offers great lateral rigidity, but with the horizontal flexibility necessary for our hands to be loaded.

La seat post BLACK INC also provides that extra Air. The aerodynamic design D shape It can be adjusted up to 25 mm. of recoil and integrates an optimal assembly with the seat stays. It has a weight of 158 gr.

CONTROL AND ERGONOMICS

Greater comfort, aerodynamics and lightness equals more speed, but without control it is useless. He frame assembly, integrated handlebar and aero seatpost allows multiple configurations and a series of ergonomic advantages. Its geometry makes it an easy bike to ride because it provides a great balance between reactivity and stability.

BLACK INC THIRTY / FORTY FIVE WHEELS

La Ostro shows all his fury next to the wheels BLACK INC. Being a super versatile bike, it gives maximum performance with different configurations of carbon rims. If you opt for a more climbing profile, the BLACK INC Thirty They should be your bet. With a 30mm profile. There will be no port or slope that will resist you. With a weight of 1475 gr. These are tires that provide maximum performance in any circumstance.

On the other hand, for the most active rollers BLACK INK presents the Forty Five tires. These are carbon rims with a 45mm profile. that add that extra aerodynamics to our longest and fastest runs. 1489 gr. They offer that perfect balance between aerodynamics and lightness.

Both wheels have a configuration of 24 front and rear spokes with a width of 27 mm which means it is optimized for tires of 25-28 mm. Like the entire set of Oster FACTOR, the rims mount hubs CERAMICSPEED.

CERAMIC SPEED

All friction surfaces of the Ostro, both the head tube and the bottom bracket axle, are ceramic. The leading brand on the market CERAMIC SPEED is responsible for providing this component to the Oyster FACTOR and what is achieved with this is to reduce the friction of the components and the weight of the assembly.

With ceramic components we can optimize the rotation of the elements and with this we can make better use of the power used. In terms of performance it can reach up to 16 watts of difference.
