I've always liked the look of the main logo as well as the holo-mirror graphics but all the secondary logos are kind of distracting but that's a criticism I have for S-Works SL7s too. They could remove 50% of the secondary logos and you'd still know it was a Factor and it would look super clean. Matching glossy wheels and bars would have made this bike look insane.

I built one for a friend, I really liked how they have done away with the expansion bung in the steerer tube and have a female thread bonded all the way down the steerer so you just cut the steerer to length and tighten down the top cap without messing around with expansion bungs, as you noted the frame comes with Ceramicspeed bb, and bushings fir Shimano or Sram, and Ceramicspeed headset, the frame kit is really comprehensive, it’s a nice finish too 👍

Just got my Ostro TDF edition 2 weeks ago. 16.02lbs with pedals and cages. Sram Red. You can get the bike with a 0 offset seat post. You missed the aero channel that is built into the bottom of the downtube up by the forks. The handlebars are so sweet aesthetically and functionally. Factor make superb bikes and as you pointed out, build their own frames/components.

Ostro VAM 12 speed Dura Ace with OSPW's and 60mm wheels which are actually 56's. 16lbs 2oz for a 54cm out of the box. It is still a crap ton of money, but compared to most of the others, a good deal.
