Focus Izalco Race Dura Ace Road Bike 2018
The Focus Izalco Race Dura Ace Road Bike has been built with racing at the forefront of the design. Sharing the same aggressive geometry as its big brother, the Max, the full carbon fibre frameset weighs in at a mere 1020 grams, perfect for sprinting away from the bunch and spinning up sharp, steep alpine ascents with ease.
While the full carbon fibre design is critical in terms of weight saving, its construction also helps improve comfort levels too, striking the perfect balance between an aggressive position and long distance efficiency. Acting as a damper, the carbon fibre effectively absorbs any unwanted road feedback before it's relayed onto the rider, ideal for longer rides across more unpredictable road surfaces.
Featuring a Dura Ace 9100 groupset, the shifting is instant and incredibly smooth, while the braking is sharp yet controllable; qualities expected from Shimano's top end mechanical setup. Combining a 52/36T chainset with a 11-30T cassette provides adequate gearing for a variety of riding styles, ensuring a high enough gear for flat, open sprints without compromising the Izalco's climbing capability.
The bike is completed with a pair of Mavic Ksyrium Black Wheels and Continental Ultra Sport II Tyres. Thanks to their low profile rims, the Ksyriums offer great crosswind stability, while their lightweight design further aids uphill efforts. Similarly, the 25mm wide tyres also improve the bikes overall performance, offering high levels of grip in all conditions and some additional cushioning, perfect for four-season racing and training.
