Factor Bikes (Taiwan) – Obsession for speed. Obsession for the highest performance. Obsession for all-round adjustability. The Factor SLICK was Driven by Obsession. From the re-engineered Twin Vane Evo downtube to the wider profile in the seat stays, the obsession is in the detail to create the fastest and most technically advanced time trial bike.

Since launching the original Vis Vires and the Factor ONE, the team at Factor have been obsessively studying, modifying and enhancing the frame structure in search of the lowest aerodynamic drag and the highest stiffness possible. The results? The Factor SLICK cuts straight through the wind, while also providing impressive power transfer and handling.



The Twin Vane Evo downtube has been optimised through CFD design with a great deal of time being spent in the wind tunnel to perfect the downtube and seat tube, both of which showcase design and engineering that is 100% unique to Factor.

Features:

• Optimised Twin Vane Evo downtube lets the air run through while increasing the bike stiffness at the BB and headset
• For even greater power transfer under pedalling, the Factor SLICK features tall chain stays taking up with whole width of the BBRight bottom bracket shell
• Wide stance seat stays to allow the air to flow free through, rather than around, the frame and rear wheel
• The SLICK hinged fork features a hidden, integrated brake and wide stance, deep airfoil profiled legs
• No stiffness is lost between the fork and aerobats thanks to the SLICK direct mount stem

The Factor SLICK is the result of extensive aerodynamic design work, structural manufacturing optimisation for best power transfer, integration of components and a wide range of adjustability to fit the rider perfectly.
