NEW FOCUS ATLAS

Focus have entered the ever-growing gravel and adventure bike market with a new model, the Atlas.

The bike will be available in three variants, the Atlas 6.7, 6.8 and 6.9, and features a reliable alloy frame, carbon forks and the capacity for 47mm tyres.

Focus say the Atlas is equipped with mounting options for bikepacking adventures and is the missing link in their lineup. It slots in between the endurance road bike the Paralane, and the cyclocross racer the Mares.

Key Features:

• endurance geometry

• integrated cockpit cabling

• robust aluminium frame & full-carbon fork

• large tyre clearance

• 650b compatible

• Shimano GRX groupset

• Approx. weight—10.5kg

Pricing is expected to range from $2499 (Atlas 6.7), $3099 (Atlas 6.8) and $3799 (Atlas 6.9).
