Focus Bikes

For a long time, cyclocross has been seen as both outdated and unattractive. However, the off-road sport has now radically changed its image. This short dash through mud and over steps and obstacles is enjoying huge popularity, especially in the USA. Clothing manufacturer Rapha and FOCUS are following this trend and, for the first time, have put together a US Cross Team for the 2010/2011 cyclocross season. Team members Chris Jones and Zach McDonald have already given solid performances at CrossVegas, during the Interbike Expo. The starting line of the US race will see both riders on their FOCUS Mares CX1 bikes, wearing Rapha clothing designed exclusively for the team.
