Factor LS Gunmetal Grey

Factor made a clear choice with the LS – no compromise. It isn’t trying to be every bike for every rider and it certainly isn’t made for bikepacking. This is a racer. Carry speed, not weight. Available as a frameset package or complete bike with Shimano Ultegra or SRAM Force and Black Inc Thirty Four gravel wheels.

Available to order

 

Long, gruelling days in the saddle require the lightest and fastest gravel set-up. The LS is designed to carry only what’s essential, with mounts for three bottle cages and a top tube. Want to know where to put your tent and stove? In the support car.

The LS is meticulously crafted, stripped back and solely focused on the essence of gravel racing: speed and grit.

 

 

  • Top tube bento mount: Securely mount a feed bag where it’s most aero and easiest to reach
  • Frame bag compatible: Carry what you need to go self-supported all day and even longer
  • Third water bottle mount: Sustain your epic rides with the option to carry a third bottle under the downtube
  • Chainsuck protector: Saves the frame from damage in the unlucky event of the chain getting sucked around the chainrings
  • Kinked pencil seat stays: Absorb vibration and shocks to save you energy
  • Compatibility: the LS is compatible with both mechanical and electronic shifting groupsets and with 1x and 2x drivetrains, so the choice is yours
