IZALCO MAX

The Garmin adapter is mounted on the bottom side of the IZALCO MAX carbon stem. You can adjust the angle and mount the plate on different mounting points.

The Rapid Axle Technology (R.A.T.) is the fastest wheel change on the market and you do not even need a tool. Just open the lever and turn it 90 degrees, then pull it out. Check out the manual as well: R.A.T. manual

Yes, the new integrated stem is working with both mechanical and electronic shifting. All 8. series IZALCO MAX bikes are ready for the stem, but you have to change top cap and headset. Here are all stem lengths with their order number:
KD120222008 C.I.S. road stem 60 mm
KD120222009 C.I.S. road stem 70 mm
KD120222010 C.I.S. road stem 80 mm
KD120222011 C.I.S. road stem 90 mm
KD120222012 C.I.S. road stem 100 mm
KD120222013 C.I.S. road stem 110 mm

You can order a different stem length via your dealer. During the IZALCO MAX development process, it was key to make the stem easily exchangeble without removing or cutting any cables. But you should consider the following: Switching to a longer stem might require longer cables. Make sure the cables are long enough. Switching to a shorter stem might lead to long cables which could be shortened for a cleaner look. Here are all stem lengths with their order number:
KD120222008 C.I.S. road stem 60 mm
KD120222009 C.I.S. road stem 70 mm
KD120222010 C.I.S. road stem 80 mm
KD120222011 C.I.S. road stem 90 mm
KD120222012 C.I.S. road stem 100 mm
KD120222013 C.I.S. road stem 110 mm

The IZALCO MAX stem gives you the freedom to find your perfect riding position. Simply remove one of the split spacers underneath the stem and add a round spacer with the same height on top. If you have found your perfect riding position, remove the round spacers on top and cut the steerer for a clean look. If you need help, you can always ask your local dealer.

As the IZALCO MAX is our bike for pushing speed limits, there are no mounting options.

Yes, the 9. and 8. series models of the IZALCO MAX are approved. They are allowed on direct drive trainers. Here you can find the manual: How to install your FOCUS Bike on a smart trainer

The IZALCO MAX is not tested and not approved to use with a bike trailer.

Please see the exploded drawing for all details:

There is just one size for the rear: Minimum and maximum are 160 mm. For the fork you have the option between 140 or 160 mm, but we highly recommend to keep the 160 mm disc.

For the IZALCO MAX all groupsets fit that are available in the different price levels of the IZALCO MAX. But the 9. series only works with electronic shifting like Shimano's Di2 and Sram's AXS because of the aero stem.

For the frame, 28 mm tires will fit. But it also depends on the tire manufacturer and the rim width. In general, the tire is safe to ride when there is a 4 mm clearance between tire and frame as well as between tire and fork.

The IZALCO MAX is designed for 700c road tire standard.

The maximum system weight for carbon bikes is 110 kg. It includes rider, bike and all equipment.

It means that the bike is either equipped with two or only one chainring in the front. So 1by would refer to one chainring in the front and 2by to two chainrings. Our IZALCO MAX is designed for a 2by setup, so the front derailleur hanger is not removable. Nevertheless, 1by is possible.

The IZALCO MAX 9. series can only be used with electronic shifting. The 8. series can be used with both electronic and mechanical shifting.
