Inspired by the world tour-proven OSTRO VAM, the MONZA integrates aerodynamic efficiency, optimised carbon layups, and a balanced stiffness-to-weight ratio to enhance speed and responsiveness. Key features include a refined aero-optimised frame, simplified internal cable routing with a new HB05 barstem, and convenient integrated storage. With a slightly relaxed geometry allowing greater comfort without sacrificing handling, 34 mm tyre clearance, and Black Inc FORTY FIVE wheels, the MONZA aims to make race-ready performance accessible to a broader range of riders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignfull size-full\"><a href=\"https:\/\/switchbacksports.co.za\/collections\/road-bikes?gf_756668=Monza&amp;utm_source=bikehub&amp;utm_medium=banners\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\" noreferrer noopener nofollow\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"660\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Studio-MONZA-SOLAR-BLUE-Ultegra-180-DS180.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-72146\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Studio-MONZA-SOLAR-BLUE-Ultegra-180-DS180.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Studio-MONZA-SOLAR-BLUE-Ultegra-180-DS180-300x165.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wp-media.bikehub.co.za\/production\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Studio-MONZA-SOLAR-BLUE-Ultegra-180-DS180-768x422.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Get all the details, including local pricing and availability in the press release below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Press Release<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Factor Bikes, the premium performance bicycle brand, has announced the <a href=\"https:\/\/switchbacksports.co.za\/collections\/road-bikes?gf_756668=Monza&amp;utm_source=bikehub&amp;utm_medium=banners\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">new MONZA<\/a> performance road race bike.
