HIGHLIGHTS 2016
RAVEN MAX
OUR NEW, FULLY FLEDGED XC & MARATHON RACE HARDTAIL PUTS THE FUN BACK INTO BIKING! Fantastic acceleration combined with amazing comfort are what make this carbon flyer so special. What‘s more, it comes in 29“ and 27.5“ versions to appeal to a wide range of riders! The two wheel sizes guarantee an ideal riding position plus top speed. And it doesn‘t matter whether you‘re a newcomer to cycle racing or a World Cup professional rider in the FOCUS XC Team. Its super-stiff carbon chassis, weighing in at just 885 g, makes the Raven MAX eager to take on steep ascents, while its modern geometry gives it brilliant precision handling and agility that allow you to take every twist and turn in your stride. This thoroughbred turns tough root sections into a flow trail. The Raven cable routing even allows you to fit a Vario seatpost to make descents even more fun. FOCUS Raven MAX – because top performance is meant to be fun!
WHAT THE MEDIA SAYS: MountainBIKE magazine has already put the new Focus Raven Max through its paces at the World Cup in Albstadt. What was immediately obvious at the first test ride was the enormous agility of the 29“ Raven Max. MountainBIKE editor Max Hilger was immediately blown away by the Raven‘s performance in the bends: „The 29“ Raven is so manoeuvrable, I can also picture it as a trail hardtail with Vario seatpost. It‘s hard to imagine that the 27.5“ model is even snappier in the bends.“ MountainBIKE
