Focus Izalco Max AG2R Road Frameset 2016

Emulating your heroes, such as Romain Bardet, Jean-Christophe Péraud and Jan Bakelants, just got that bit easier thanks to the Focus Izalco Max AG2R Road Frameset 2016. Sporting their eye catching colour scheme, this is the perfect foundation on which to build a replica or just a high performance bike.

No stone has been left unturned in Focus's pursuits of perfection in the balance between performance orientated stiffness and weight reduction. This has resulted in the phenomenal Izalco Max P2T 10 Carbon fibre frame weighing just 750 g, with the Izalco Max P2T 10 Carbon T4 fork adding a mere 295 g. The fork is perhaps the most revolutionary, with its full carbon fibre construction coming from one seamless piece. With this you get superb lateral stiffness for performance with the necessary shock absorption to remove the vibrations coming from the road to boost comfort.

This fantastic fork is connected to the frame through the tapered headtube for added stiffness. Such a design also means you can be far more confident in the corners with the precise handling.

A technology that seems likely to have come from their extensive work with the AG2R La Mondiale team, Focus individually design each frame size so that all of them offer the perfect balance of stiffness to weight that their engineers desire.

More weight is saved by leaving the cabling external. Usefully, this means that maintenance and adjustment can be accomplished far more easily.

Manipulating the seat stays and including their Focus CPX Plus Carbon seatpost with the CPX Carbon stem ensures the smoothest of rides where it is required. This vertical compliance and vibration dampening does not come at the expense of performance, as the lateral rigidity transfers all of your power to speed, even with all out standing efforts. The Pressfit30 bottom bracket is another big factor in getting the most efficient power transfer.
