It seems that we have reached a plateau in bike development since the only actual changes are derived by the relaxed UCI rules. It's the same for SL7/SL8 and other brands. Kinda boring to have a NBD nowadays, but it's certainly a good time to buy used older models. I also prefer the look of the previous Ostro as I don't like the very thin top tube. But hey, it's at least a microwatt and a gram and a half saved.
I said the same thing when the SL8 came out, not swapping out the SL7. I lasted about a week 😂. I’m a magpie love shiny ✨ and new. New factor looks 👌🏼. But yeah not sold on all marketing claims but they need to sell new bikes so there are alway wild claims
My resistance is like a wet paper bag.....LOL. The claims are a bit all over the place. Aero is very hard for the punter to verify, but the weight can be of course.
lol disk brakes on road bike, you can tell a cyclist is either a NOOB or has sold out if they ride a disk road, what a joke. There will be a comedy series 20 years in the future dedicated for road disks, ridiculous
Basically Factor has a branding issue going on.
Solution: The V2 Ostro should be called Factor One VAM or something like that. Happy days
That's a pretty good assessment actually. The Ostro V2 is in actual fact the One V2 (or is it 3?!)
Like it!
@@CyclespeedTours ah yes. It’s the 3!
The first One didn’t have those crazy cockpit thingy
honestly I just wish someone would sue these bike manufactures for false advertising

Note to self ... don't walk into a bike shop with shiny new bikes!
Good advice!
Branding it is a lie. Simple. Marketing is a bull...
even if 20,000 USD, yout must buy for the likes.

What colour is that? Gloss Chrome or Black?
Wow, you already have the new frame at home?! Sweet🤟

Indeed it is! Extra fluffy.
Looking forward to the next video, interesting,
It might not be what you were expecting.....!
It’s all good as long as there’s no repeating of marketing BS

disc brakes aren't perfect, but I guess all the pro peloton must be 'noobs' then....
New mic day!
Yes!
