Focus Paralane AL Apex 11G Adventure Road Bike 2017

Pitted as the go anywhere, do anything bike, the Focus Paralane AL Apex 11G Adventure Road Bike 2017 is ideal for riders who need the versatility of both a road and gravel bike. Everything from its simple SRAM Apex X1 drivetrain for enhanced durability, to its ability to take 35mm tyres for when the terrain gets technical, has been designed to give you a stable, responsive and comfortable ride on any road you set your eyes on.

Mirroring the lighter carbon fibre version, this aluminium frame features all the same ride-enhancing features you would come to expect from a much higher priced bike. Hydroformed tubing closely mimics the carbon fibre shape, eliminating any weld joints for a smooth, sleek and aesthetically pleasing ride, whilst also keeping the weight down to increase efficiency.

RAT thru-axles, a 25.4mm seatpost, 35mm tyre clearance and mudguard mounts also come as standard to provide greater stability and handling over rough terrain, and not to forget it uses a Paralane specific carbon fork to absorb road vibrations and trail inconsistencies.

SRAM’s Apex braking system gives mechanical disc brakes a new name in terms of power and control. Easy to maintain and ideal for riding in a wide range of conditions, these brakes are perfect for exploring roads less traveled thanks to efficient heat modulation and consistent wet and dry performance.

A 44t chainring and an 11-36t cassette are the ideal combination for an adventure road bike, sitting in between a road and mountain bike ratio that provides all the spin you need to climb on steep, technical, off-road terrain, whilst giving the power to surge along the flats when on-road.

Schwalbe Lugano 28mm tyres fitted to DT Swiss R522 rims offer great levels of traction out the box. Puncture resistance is taken to new heights, whilst the rims stay strong and rigid to ensure, when you’re sprinting out the saddle or manoeuvring along gravel descents, the entire bike stays in control.
