Aston Martin and Factor Bikes have teamed up to create the world’s most technologically advanced superbike, the One-77.
Based on the Factor001 by Factor Bikes, the Aston Martin-branded two-wheeler will feature the same “motorsport-derived data logging system,” providing over 100 channels of performance feedback like speed, rate of climb and power.
Biometric data will also be available, including measurements for ECG, respiration rate and core body temperature.
The bike has a carbon frame with Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 groupset, disc brakes, full carbon 8-spke wheels and leather taped handle bars.
The bike will come in 7 different color/trim packages with matching brake calipers, and leather trimmed saddle and bar tape.
Like the car it’s named after, the One-77 bike will come in a limited production run of only 77 bikes and will be priced at £25,000 (about $39,200).
