When a FOCUS Bike hits the trail for the very first time it's already endured the longest stretch - its development. A bike's life doesn't start when it hits the streets but begins in our engineer's heads. The first thing to roll om is an innovative new frame concept...   Please find here the FOCUS-designs of 2009.

ALL MOUNTAIN

Allmountain and Enduro Bikes feel most at home in the wild. If the mountains are also calling, then they might show some resistance. Then there is only one thing to do: press hard on the pedals and show them who is boss. Best of all with a fast downhill ride. Then the only way to show off the extremely stable equipment of an Allmountain is nerves of steel.

SPORT

With a sports bike beginners soon turn into upward climbers. Under the name "Sport" all the advantages of our specialist bikes come together to form respectable all-rounders. Tried and tested Shimano components and an impressive design make uphill and downhill cycling a real pleasure whatever the terrain is.

DIRT

Dirt cyclists usually have only one thing in mind: dirty thoughts. This is completely understandable in the case of our Dirt bikes. After all, they are extremely well built. With extremely sturdy frames and the best equipment they throw up a cloud of dust on any track. What would a perfect dirt jump be without a fair portion of dirt anyway?

BMX

Street, halfpipe or park - anyone who wants to gain respect with the coolest stunts needs just three things: talent, a good deal of courage and a Focus BMX. For race or freestyle: the extremely robust and agile bikes turn anything that comes their way into a racetrack. Besides, even if the tricks don't turn out as they should - the bike itself will get a lot of appreciative looks.

LA CICLISTA

Thanks to La Ciclista bikes the "ladies first" principle is now catching on in cycle racing. On the extra-light and ergonomically perfect bikes the girls are no longer a danger on the roads - although they are to many of their male competitors. Whether racing or mountain biking - on a La Ciclista bike the ladies cut a really good figure in any situation.

CROSS

Forget the daily routine at record speed. On these bikes you will not experience any symptoms of fatigue. The perfect frame geometry in conjunction with the best components guarantees super performance in any terrain.

FITNESS

A fitness bike is the best accomplice for anyone wishing to leave the daily routine behind. With these comfortable yet dynamic bikes, overcoming your weaker self is child's play. Adjustable components adapt the bike to your needs - and not the other way around. For trips around town some of the models are really chic: with a luggage rack and mudguard.

MARATHON

Experience is measured in kilometres. Anyone who wishes to acquire plenty of experience needs a bike that will last right up to the final meter - no matter where you go. Selected components and extremely rigid frames ensure rapid progress even on difficult surfaces.

CYCLOCROSS

Why do we design a good looking cyclo-cross bike when we know that the mud will cover all its beauty after the first round? It seems irrational but the truth is that the design is just envolving from the engineering process in order to build one of the best bikes for cyclo-cross in the world. Thias was proven by many athletes around the world – not only in our home turf in Germany. And the beauty of winning a race is even sweeter with a good looking bike.

TRIATHLON / TT

In a time trial the difference between success and failure can be hundredths of a second. With the FOCUS Izalco Chrono you can make every one of them count. The aerodynamic masterpiece and the fastest bike in the world was constructed in collaboration with Swiss specialist Andreas Wasler and in 2009 was at the starting line as the time trail bike of the German UCI ProTour Team Milram.

ADVANCED

Sporty with feminine elegance. The FOCUS Advanced Series is aimed at the female rider looking fort he best possible ride. Using the same rigorous design and testing procedures as for every FOCUS bike, our designers have race-tuned these bikes for performance and control. Distinguished by their lower mounting position an shortened top tube, the blend of comfort and ergonomics puts perfect performance within reach.

E-BIKE

Tailwind included! With the new FOCUS Jarifa E-Bike series it’s like riding with a tailwind all the way. In the form of a powerful motor neatly integrated into the frame that adds to your pedalling. The sporty, fast and comfortable trekking bike’s motor reaches up to 25kph with a range of 80km on the tarmac or off road. The FOCUS Jarifa Speed can even manage up to 40kph.

TOUR

The FOCUS F.I.R.S.T. victory machine has already scooped three prizes at the 2009 Plus X Awards, for innovation, high quality and design. No wonder. After all, in the development of this fine cross-country bike our engineers dug deep down into their box of tricks. What emerged is a world-class cross-country marathon bike, which has been further improved for 2010. The result is a superior and comfortable endurance sports bike, which captivates with its unbeatable components an no-compromise approach to quality.

ROAD

In order to get a clear picture of the bikes of the Race series you have to take a look at the catalogue. When you see them in the original they are always blurred. No sooner are they there than they are gone again! High quality components and sophisticated details make the Race bikes not only fast, but extremely popular.
