Vires Velo Reviews

"Had a great experience buying my bike from Vires Velo. Started with a full bike fit with Hayden, well worth the money and very interesting \ud83d\udc4d then went on to order my Ostro vam in Chameleon with ultegra di2. It's absolutely stunning to look at and even better to ride, overall a great experience, would definitely recommend to anyone looking to buy Factor \ud83d\udc4c"

"Excellent organisation & service throughout the buying & collection process. Hayden & Rob made it seamless for me with an excellent bike fit to complete the whole package. Also the best bike i have ever owned by a long way. "

"Exceptional service from inquiry to purchase. Hayden in particular was excellent - his knowledge and hospitality during the bike fit were very impressive. Cannot recommend Vires Velo enough to anyone looking to pick up their next set of wheels."

"Brilliant experience from start to finish. Professional bike fit on the latest equipment with detailed feedback throughout the process with Hayden. Bike built on the same day by the onsite workshop team, allowing just enough time to go into Norwich city centre for a coffee and a bit of shopping before picking up my new bike \ud83d\ude03\r\nEnd result, top notch bike measured and built for you in one day!"

"A fantastic experience sums up my interaction with Vires Velo from the bike fit to receiving the the Factor Ostro VAM UK edition. The whole experience feels tailored to the individual as you can configure the bike to your preference from parts to Euro brake setup, etc. \r\nThe Ostro VAM is my first road bike and while it's likely tailored to the more avid and pro riders, for a newbie, you instantly understand why it is one of the top road bikes available. It is light, fast, sturdy, comfortable, and very responsive...and expensive, but quality and personalized services and products come at a price. "

"Amazing service from the enquiery to deliver. Any questions were answered in a very quick and timely manner. "

"My Factor Ostro VAM has the exclusive UK colourway in gun metal and bronze( I think mine was the first to be sold) in June.\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nOn Sunday 24th September 2023 it was the Gran Fondo Nove Colli, one of the longest running Gran Fondos (52 yrs), the weather up until Sunday had been perfect, blue skies 28-29deg calm winds - incredible. However on Sunday the weather was quite different, biblical rain for 5 hours mist and temperatures between 10 and 15 deg but in reality, this did not matter. I was fully prepared for the event, training had gone well so the ride was not an issue. What made the ride was realising just how good the Factor Ostro VAM was, super quick on the flats, holding its speed in the quick groups on the run-ins to the climbs, and a super stable platform to get the power down for the climbs many of which were between 15-20deg. The descents were sketchy to say the least due to the wet conditions however the bike was confidence inspiring and sure footed. Comfort was the best I have experienced on a bike thanks to the bike and to the bike fit. To cap it all in an area stuffed with Pinarellos and Colnagos I got so many compliments for my bike. I think I could have sold quite a few.\r\n\r\nI may seem to be gushing but this is exactly how it was and will continue to be I am sure. So, many thanks to you all at ViresVelo for helping with getting my bike and for Factor for producing an awesome machine. "
