How did they keep this a secret? Insane new Factor prototype blows minds at the Dauphiné

Factor Hanzo Road.

Most new bikes create a ripple or two in the rumour pond before they come out. Leaked images online, people on message boards assuring other members they are sure that a new bike or another is coming. Not so with this new Factor aero bike, ridden by Jake Stewart of Israel-Premier Tech at the Critérium du Dauphiné.

The team were pretty cagy about any details, and while a Dauphiné soft launch usually means a Tour de France hard launch, it is unclear if this mad new machine will be out fully by July. Luckily, it's so different that there is plenty to discuss.
