The answer arrived first in data, independent testing confirming the ONE as the fastest
road bike in the world, and then on the road, where a stage win at the Critérium du
Dauphiné on its prototype debut provided the clearest validation possible.
The Factor ONE represents a shift in how modern race bikes are conceived. Elite
racing has evolved: riders sit further forward, run narrower bars, shorter cranks,
deeper tyre volumes, and more aerodynamic positions than ever before. The ONE was
engineered around these realities from day one, not retrofitted to them.
