2026 Factor OSTRO VAM Road Frameset
The 2026 Factor OSTRO VAM Road Frameset is even lighter and faster than its predecessor, establishing itself as one of the most advanced aero road framesets available today. Designed to excel in both aerodynamics and responsiveness, the OSTRO VAM is built to dominate high-speed racing across flat and rolling terrain.
Factor’s engineers utilized advanced computer modeling to sculpt every millimeter of the frame for optimal airflow. After 40 kilometers, the OSTRO VAM leaves both its predecessor and competitors far behind. The refined head tube and airfoil-shaped frame profiles deliver exceptional aerodynamic gains, verified through extensive wind tunnel testing.
Constructed from a premium blend of TeXtreme®, Toray®, and Nippon Graphite® pitch-based carbon fibers, the OSTRO VAM frameset delivers outstanding stiffness, low weight, and razor-sharp handling. Simply put, no other frameset in its class cuts through the air like the OSTRO VAM.
