The Perfect Balance of Comfort and Precision on the Factor Monza Road Bike
Optimized Fit for a Wider Range of Cyclists
The Factor Monza road bike is engineered with a more accessible geometry compared to the high-performance Ostro VAM. Each frame size on the Monza is slightly shorter and taller, creating a more comfortable and inclusive fit for a broader range of riders. This "democratized geometry" offers performance without the aggressive posture demanded by traditional race bikes.
Notably, the reach gradually increases across sizes, converging with the Ostro VAM in larger frame options. Additionally, the newly developed HB04 integrated bar-stem reduces reach by an extra 5mm, enhancing cockpit ergonomics and control for riders seeking a more balanced and relaxed position.
Sharp, Responsive Handling That Inspires Confidence
Despite its more accessible fit, the Monza doesn’t compromise on handling performance. It shares the same head tube angle and fork offset as the race-proven Ostro VAM, preserving the sharp, responsive feel that Factor is known for. The Monza's short chainstays and identical wheelbase contribute to its snappy, agile ride characteristics—ideal for riders who crave a lively yet controlled experience on the road.
Whether you're tackling winding descents or accelerating out of corners, the Monza delivers precision handling with high-speed stability, making it a true contender in the performance road bike category.
Built With the Rider in Mind
Designed to be an accessible high-performance road bike, the Factor Monza reflects a development philosophy centered around real-world rider needs. Every design decision—from geometry to component integration—aims to maximize performance, comfort, and versatility, making it the perfect road companion for ambitious cyclists seeking pro-level engineering in a rider-friendly package.
