Jan 2021 · Ronan Mc Laughlin

What Focus' first gravel bike lacks in flair, it makes up for with quiet competence and capability.

Highs
  • Capable on a wide range of terrain, lots of storage capability, confidence-inspiring handling.

Lows
  • The included top tube bag is too small, questionable headset bearing durability, Road Boost compatibility headaches.

FOCUS ATLAS 6.8 gravel bike – Around the world with a 2 L engine

Jan 2021 · Philipp Schwab

FOCUS present their first-ever gravel bike in the form of the ATLAS, admittedly jumping onto the gravel train after it's already gathered some steam. How does this gravel bike perform out in the real world? Do the current top dogs in the sub € 2,000 bracket have to be afraid or can the ROSE BACKROAD, Canyon Grail and Felt Breed stay calm? Find out here!

Highs
  • Numerous mounts enhance everyday practicality

  • High stability

  • Solid vibration damping

  • High efficiency

Lows
  • Limited comfort in rough terrain

  • Road Boost wheels limit upgrade potential
