Disc brakes are coming to the pro peloton, and Focus is ready.
The Focus Izalco Max Disc grabbed headlines when it launched earlier this year for its astonishingly light 790g thru-axle disc frame. Unlike some road disc bikes, the Max Disc was designed from the ground up, and the front triangle is 60g lighter than the rim-brake version.
Now Focus has revealed its full road range, and there are some interesting models at impressive prices.

One noteworthy bike is the Izalco Max Disc Dura-Ace, which blends a Dura-Ace drivetrain with an FSA carbon four-arm SL-K crank with the new Shimano flat-mount RS805 brakes. Throw in classy DT Swiss R23DB wheels, a carbon CEX stem, and carbon comfort post all for £3299 and we may be looking at one of 2016’s biggest bargains.
At the top of the tree is the Izalco Max 0.0, a flyweight race machine with standard caliper brakes that includes feathery 995g DT Swiss RRC32T carbon wheels, THM Fibula brakes, and a Schmolke TLO carbon post. The complete bike weighs just 4.95kg (in a size 56) and is priced at £7699.
