The Green Beast: Factor OSTRO VAM (Racing Green)

I currently own two bicycles, and interestingly enough, they both hail from British brands.

First up is my road bike, the Factor OSTRO VAM in a stunning Racing Green. My second ride is a Brompton P Line in Emerald Lacquer. You might be wondering, “Do you live in the UK?” Haha, nope! I’m based right here in Korea. It turns out that just following my personal color palette led me to this accidental British collection. I guess there’s no hiding it—I’m absolutely obsessed with the color green!

The Star of the Show: Factor OSTRO VAM “Greendizer”

Of the two, I want to introduce my Factor OSTRO VAM today. I’ve even given it a nickname: “Greendizer.”

It features a full carbon frame and carbon wheels. While the current setup is great, I do have a dream of upgrading the wheels to Black Inc someday to really complete the look and performance.

Cycling Life in Seoul

Seoul is honestly a fantastic city for cyclists. Just a short ride from almost anywhere, you’ll find well-maintained bike paths. I usually spend my time cruising along the Han River or tackling the Cross-Country Cycling Routes.

However, as any road biker knows, traveling with a full-sized bike on trains or buses can be a bit of a headache due to all the restrictions. That’s actually why I ended up adding the Brompton to my stable! It makes the “multi-modal” commute so much easier.

Wrapping Up

I’ll save the Brompton introduction for my next post. Until then, stay safe and enjoy the ride!

Always ride safe!
