    Chris Froome’s 2022 Bike size

    This page is dedicated to Chris Froome’s 2022 Bike Size.
    Chris Froome rides with the team Israel Premier Tech since 2021.
    There is nothing for me to add to the exceptional Palmares of the four-times Tour de France winner so let’s jump into the bike nerdy bits and size.

    There is a unique fact about Chris Froome on top of his numerous victories.
    Froome is the only pro rider on the UCI World Tour riding his own bike brand.
    Chris Froome invested in Factor bike company and joined the board of directors in 2021.

    That’s certainly influenced a little bit the bikes’ conception and the reason why there is a rim brake version of the O2 VAM in the Factor’s catalog.
