Inspired by a city; designed to inspire
Marking Factor\u2019s collaboration with Justin Williams and his L39ION of Los Angeles cycling team, the OSTRO VAM L39ION Edition uses a graphic concept that represents the Williams brothers\u2019 connection to LA and its transit system. With the map of the bus lines prominent on the head tube and the high-viz lettering that practically glows in the dark for a twilight crit, this is an OSTRO VAM ready to take on the contact sport that is criterium racing.<\/p>\n
Finding inspiration in LA
Justin and Cory Williams grew up in South Central Los Angeles on 39th street, a neighbourhood not famous for its cycling history. That didn\u2019t stop the Williams brothers from finding, falling in love, and transforming road cycling in the US. But their LA roots inspired Justin to create a racing environment that would attract and inform a whole new generation of American crit racers. Using a map of the LA transit system, which is integral to connecting the many different pockets of the ultra-urban city, mirrors the role Williams has in connecting the riders he inspires to the vibrant L39ION of Los Angeles cycling community. It\u2019s a safe space to go fast, have fun, and be yourself.
