With bike sales and participation in gravel events continuing to grow, it's really no surprise that more and more high-tech bikes have entered the fray designed and engineered to help cyclists go faster, further, and with more comfort while training and racing.

This is a racing bike through and through so thankfully the improved compliance doesn't sacrifice Factor's renowned torsional bottom bracket stiffness while sprinting and climbing. That stiffness comes cou...
