. They collaborated with Jay Gundzik, Creative Director for Factor and Black Inc, to dial in the design.“We chatted about Duke’s inspiration and influences in life and in art,” Gundzik said inThe designer combined elements of Agyapong’s poetry, the art of, hand-painted typography, hand-drawn graphics, and “images in acrylic paint and ink on canvas.”

He made it authentic.” The details are noteworthy. Lines and images from Agyapong’s poem “BLK” speckle the frame, and he and Gundzik chose each color and texture with care and intention.
“Getting the right balance of color and story together was painstaking. I was blown away by how it came together,” noted Gundzik once the process was complete.The Duke x Factor OSTRO VAM is available in “very limited quantities,” — as the frame only or with the groupsets Factor offers for the stock OSTRO VAM.
Those groupsets include SRAM Red AXS eTap + Quarq PM, SRAM Force AXS eTap + Quarq PM, Shimano 8170 Ultegra, and Shimano 9270 Dura Ace. Here’s the geometry, straight from Factor Bikes.
