Factor’s O2 is a refined all-rounder, built for speed and comfort during long days in the saddle. Redesigned from the inside-out utilising the revolutionary manufacturing methods of the O2 VAM, the second generation of the O2 is stronger, lighter and packed with class-leading technology.

Redesigned From the Inside Out
Utilising industry-leading technology learned through the O2 VAM project, the second generation of O2 is lighter, stronger and more comfortable than before. Pressurization greater than normal in the manufacturing process removes excess resin, making O2 carbon stronger, lighter and more efficient.
Confidence, Control and Comfort
Versatility is achieved through geometry specifically optimised for consistent handling across all sizes. Rear mechanical trail increases reflecting of the higher centre of gravity of larger sized riders. The second-generation O2 also features larger tyre clearance of up to 30mm wide (measured).

Developed & Tested in the Real World
Factor O2 has been shaped and constructed for the best performance on the road, not just on the test lab. After long hours spent on FEA for structural analysis and perfecting the carbon fibre layup in our factory, many frames and fork samples in all sizes were made to be tested on the road by our team of test riders, as well as some of the top professional cyclists. This extended road testing provided very valuable feedback to refine and perfect the riding characteristics of the FACTOR O2.
