The K-Factor is a common sense bike at between $2000 and
$2500. With a new variable geometry seat post configuration
for 2008, a high front end and the proven new Kona-winning
molded construction also used in the Kuota Kalibur the newest
version of the 2008 K-Factor is a versatile triathlon bike
for all distances and terrains, especially longer distance
events where a higher front end is a benefit. This is also
another full-carbon fiber bike at the key $2500 plus/minus
price point where so many first time triathlon bikes are purchased.
Whether you are headed to your first triathlon or your first
Ironman the K-Factor may make sense if you prefer a higher
front end for power and comfort. Another big advantage to
the K-Factor is price. The K-Factor is less expensive than
any other molded, carbon fiber complete bike with Shimano
105 equipped versions at around $2000 complete. This puts
a complete molded carbon bike at the price of many other framesets.
We also build K-Factors with a mix of Campagnolo, Shimano
and new SRAM components to your specifications. If the K-Factor
fits you, this versatile, comfortable bike with excellent
mechanical features can be a great choice.
The Kuota K-Factor now has three full seasons of success behind
it and continues to improve. This bike is one of the reasons
why Kuota has grown so rapidly in the triathlon market during
the last three seasons.
