Focus Izalco Max 9.9 – Carbon Raw & Matt Black

Description

IZALCO MAX MAKES YOU FASTER

Focus asked themselves: What is the very essence of a road bike? Speed! Is that what the IZALCO MAX stands for? Absolutely yes! You being fast on an IZALCO MAX is what the team at Focus are aiming for. Therefore, everything about the IZALCO MAX is fast uncompromisingly fast.

Where marginal gains count, Focus have made there fastest road bike ever! It is the perfect composition of aerodynamics, stiffness and weight for those who don’t compromise on speed in any situation. With the IZALCO MAX, there are no slow rides. It is truly the essence of pace.

AERO GAINS

Our engineers extensively played the crucial gains game to reach the next level of aero performance. The outcomes are highly aerodynamic, refined NACA shapes.

And there is more: a standard water bottle on the down tube is almost completely hidden from the wind with a minimal effect of only 0.3 W. Because unfortunately we all dont have personal domestiques and need to carry water ourselves.

By saving 6.6 watts at 45 km/h, it is 1 min 47 seconds faster over a distance of 45 km compared to its predecessor.

WHEN STIFFNESS MEETS COMFORT

Striking the perfect balance between stiffness and comfort is the pinnacle of frame design. A pinnacle we climbed particularly for this IZALCO MAX.

With a stiff bottom bracket and also a fork that is optimised for lateral stiffness, you get that extra power on the road.

EFFORTLESS HANDLING

We all know that confidence makes you ride faster. The IZALCO MAX is known for its great fit and playful character.

So, we protected those characteristics to carefully refine the geometry for easier cornering, especially at high speeds. This will boost your confidence and therefore how fast you want to push it.
