The Classified X Factor Gold Standard, a limited edition of the Factor Ostro VAM, was launched last week at the Eurobike 2022 show.
Each Classified x Factor bike features a limited-edition gold coloured Powershift hub, celebrating the Eurobike Gold Award won by Classified’s gear shifting technology in 2021. The frame’s custom matt black and golden paintjob was designed to compliment the gold hub… ‘resulting in a visually striking and super sleek high-performance racing machine.’
The Powershift ‘Gold Edition’ hubs are limited to 100 items worldwide, with the first 25 assigned to Factor Bikes, each of which has a unique laser edging number.
Starting from €10,699 and only limited to only 25 bikes worldwide, consumers can spec each unique Classified x Factor Ostro VAM with a choice of SRAM groupsets, CeramicSpeed OSPWs and various other configurations.
Classified’s Powershift technology replaces the functionality of the front derailleur. It’s incorporated in the rear hub and enables cyclists to change gears… ‘instantaneously, under full load, with uncompromised ratio coverage and gear steps.’
Classified adds that… ‘It’s the most efficient drivetrain option in the market and it’s compatible with all flatmount disk brake frames with a 142mm standard hub width.’
