Team Milram rides FOCUS Izalco Team Milram
20/01/2025
Under the motto „everything is new – everything will be different“, the new Team Milram was introduced in Dortmund on January 07, 2009. Also what is new are the Team Milram’s racing bikes. What is also unique: a German professional team in the highest category rides with German racing bikes! That was never the case before. The cyclists are also enthusiastic about their bike. “I am positively surprised at the street bike. FOCUS is not a brand that has been long in the racing bike scene which the riders have, so-to-say, licked their fingers. This will change however now. I think that these are the best bikes momentarily in the market”, such said Linus Gerdemann during the team presentation.
Already since years FOCUS has constructed bicycles from athletes for athletes. Balanced geometries which are not only suitable for the racing sport and excellent stiffness values (adjusted for each size) are shown; they are only two arguments which distinguish the FOCUS racing bikes. The SSPS (stable stiffness per size) which guarantees each frame the same stiffness, is a milestone in the frame construction. Only so is guaranteed that each cyclist of the Team Milram gets the same experience on his racing bike. This is an unbeatable argument for the pros.
Additionally each individual bike of the team undergoes careful tests before the delivery from FOCUS: safety, slight weight and the racing sport exclude all traces of doubt. This has been possible because the engineers at FOCUS who control the complete product development in Germany an use for this top-grade “high-modular carbon”. Thus, in this way, the three Team Milram racing bikes (Izalco, Mares and Izalco Chrono) leave no wishes unfulfilled.
The frame of the FOCUS Izalco Team Milram was further optimized. What is decisive, if not a visible difference to earlier models, is the new carbon layup. This again produces still improved STW-values and does not lead to any limitation in handling. The reworked frame of the pros is from now on found in all FOCUS Izalco models. Thus each buyer of a FOCUS Izalco receives the same bike as Gerdemann, Ciolek, Wegmann, Knees + Co.
