Time trial2026ONE (2025) ↗Disc brakes

The ONE SP is Factor's ONE aero road frame fitted with a dedicated time-trial and triathlon cockpit, the ONE SP Bar, which bolts to the fork head with four bolts and routes cables internally. Factor pitches it for riders who want road-bike handling and low weight with an aero position, such as on hilly time trials, and it has been raced at the Ironman 70.3 World Championship. It keeps the ONE's 34 mm tyre clearance, T47 bottom bracket and bottom-bracket Di2 battery.

Our verdict

Overall

out of 100, average of 6 categories

A light, road-handling aero frame turned into a TT and triathlon bike with its own integrated bar, aimed at hilly courses where a full TT bike is heavy. There is no bento box or built-in hydration, Factor publishes no pad stack or reach figures, and it costs as much as a flagship tri bike.

Good to know

  • Racing

    The ONE frame is on the UCI list of approved framesets ('ONE / FM310', since 30 May 2025), but Factor doesn't say whether the ONE SP with its time-trial bar meets UCI time-trial rules, so UCI legality is left open.

    Source
  • Versions

    Factor lists the ONE SP in its time-trial range alongside the triathlon-only SLiCK and the HANZŌ TT bike. It uses the ONE frame; Factor's build pages show the ONE's geometry for it.
