IZALCO MAX DISC 8.8
? Road Bike Carbon
The Focus Izalco Max Disc 8.8 with Ultegra drivetrain has an aerodynamically shaped and lightweight carbon frame with carbon stem. The cable routing is integrated for a clean look and good aerodynamics. Shimano’s disc brakes provide excellent deceleration that can be easily controlled.
Aerodynamic and really fast: the road bike Izalco Max Disc 8.8 from Focus The new IZALCO MAX is more than just the fastest. It is a statement. The IZALCO MAX brings along more than just aerodynamics, low weight and incredible speed. It merges all its features into a thrilling experience, giving a deeper purpose to your ride. To get more out of every ride. Together with your friends. With more style, elegance and passion. The Focus engineers have completely redesigned every tube and improved these in several stages within the wind tunnel. Every surface was scrutinised in order to achieve the best possible mix of aerodynamics and low weight. The result is a combination of Kamm tail profiles, hidden cables and well-balanced proportions. On paper, this combination results in a 6 per cent improvement in aerodynamic resistance in comparison to the previous model with same wheels, components, position and dummy test rider. This allows you to go faster and save a lot of energy during every ride, no matter how fast you go. Focus has slightly updated and adapted the repeatedly proven geometry of the IZALCO MAX – which has claimed many Tour de France stage victories – to the current everyday demands of road cyclists. Additional important facts: The geometry of the sizes XXL and XXS has been specially adapted to the needs of cyclists big and small. With the MAX Carbon Technology and the cable integration, Focus is laying the foundations for the best mix of aerodynamics and low weight. The streamlined, aerodynamic tubes complete the harmonic design. All cast from the same mould. Everything based on a single idea. More than just the fastest. Features – IZALCO MAX DISC 8.8 Optimised in the wind tunnel
Focus has specially developed a handlebar stem with a fully integrated headset in order to minimise wind resistance. The specially developed seatpost also perfectly complements the aerodynamic design of the IZALCO MAX. To sum it up – Faster
Manufactured entirely from carbon fibre, the IZALCO MAX is ultra-light and agile. The extremely stiff bottom bracket transforms your pedal power and propels you forward. Light on the mountain, nippy in the sprint, streamlined in the wind. Setting the benchmark for the future
The pioneering IZALCO MAX sets new standards: The technology flagship from Focus perfectly combines disc brakes with an aerodynamic frame. Weight Frame: 1040 g (size M, painted, without assembly parts) Fork: 380 g (size M, painted, without assembly parts) Technologies Max Carbon Technology
MAX Carbon Technology pushes the boundaries of lightweight construction: Focus uses highly rigid high modulus carbon fibres in a fibre-based design to optimise the weight-to-stiffness ratio which, when coupled with their high-pressure moulding process, achieves maximum strength and withstands test procedures significantly above the standard. This has enabled them to construct the world’s lightest frame. Rapid Axle Technology | R.A.T.
R.A.T. is the world’ s fastest thru axle and stands for Rapid Axle Technology. It is the first thru axle system that combines the stability, alignment and lateral rigidity of a thru axle with an extremely fast wheel change. In terms of simplicity and speed, the patented R.A.T. system even surpasses conventional quick-releases. Stable Stiffness Per Size | S.S.P.S.
To ensure that all bike sizes offer the same riding characteristics, all frame heights are individually designed and have a specially developed carbon lay-up. This Stable Stiffness Per Size (SSPS) production ensures that all sizes offer the optimum weight to stiffness ratio. Please note that pedals are not included! IZALCO MAX – More than just the fastest
