New Focus Izalco Max: legs and… aerodynamics count
To go fast we first need the watts of our legs. A well-studied project, however, helps you go faster. The data collected by Focus in the wind tunnel have an important specific weight.
The seat post is D-Shape.
At 45 km/h you save 6.6 watts which means that over a distance of 45 km, according to the survey model established by Focus, the I earn is equal to 1’47”.
If it is true that every detail can make the difference, the impact of the water bottle, almost completely shielded by the truncated tail of the oblique tube, is equal to 0.3 W.
CIS 2.0 stem: easy getting on the bike
The handlebar set includes the use ofCIS attack (Cockpit Integration Solution) 2.0. La wedge front plate describes a design that allows the cable passage to be hidden under the body of the attachment itself thanks also to the use of a special cover.
This means that every CIS 2.0 attack, available in six different lengths (from 70 to 120 mm), can be easily replaced to find the correct position.
The new Focus Izalco Max comes standard with cycle computer support Garmin or Wahoo that can accommodate a light or, alternatively, an action camera.
