FACTOR ELARA
/ Speed Over Everything.
The ELARA is the culmination of Factor’s gravel engineering. It represents the moment gravel racing reaches full maturity, where speed, control, and precision meet on surfaces that refuse to be predictable.
OVERVIEW
The Purest Expression of Fast Gravel
Designed for modern gravel racing, the ELARA combines road-bike responsiveness with the tyre clearance, stability, and control needed to maintain race pace over rough terrain. With clearance for tyres up to 57mm, aerodynamic development derived from Factor’s fastest road bikes and a lightweight true-monocoque frame, it brings a distinctly road-racing approach to gravel.

Key Features
The ELARA is designed around large-volume gravel tyres, allowing up to 57mm rubber with a 1x drivetrain. More volume means greater traction, improved impact absorption and the ability to maintain speed across rough surfaces.
Aerodynamic development draws on Factor's ONE and OSTRO VAM programmes, with CFD validation showing measurable reductions in drag compared with the previous OSTRO Gravel.
The one-piece monocoque construction allows Factor to precisely tune stiffness and weight throughout the frame. A painted size medium weighs under 1,100g.
Integrated storage within the downtube provides space for essential tools, spares and riding kit without requiring an external saddle bag.
A UDH/direct-mount rear derailleur interface provides compatibility with modern drivetrain technology and keeps the rear end simple and serviceable.
A threaded T47A bottom bracket provides a robust, serviceable interface while making future maintenance straightforward.
The Black Inc Aero Gravel Bar AB07 integrates the handlebar, stem, computer mounting and cable routing into a clean, aerodynamic package developed specifically for the demands of fast gravel.
