Samenvatting

The Focus Mares cyclocross bike is praised for its updated features like flat mount disc brakes and 12-mm thru-axles, offering easy wheel changes and improved performance. It's noted for its aggressive geometry, lightweight frame, and the inclusion of high-quality components such as SRAM Force 1x drivetrain and DT Swiss wheels. However, some reviews mention concerns over weight and chainring size affecting climbing efficiency.

  • 12-mm thru-axles front and rear for easy wheel changes

  • Aggressive geometry for quick handling

  • Lightweight frame

  • High-quality components like SRAM Force 1x drivetrain and DT Swiss wheels

Cons
  • Concerns over weight affecting climbing efficiency

Focus Mares Force 1 review

okt 2016 · Ben Delaney

Efficient to accelerate, calm when cornering over rough stuff, and packed full of smart rider-friendly details. Buy if you appreciate a cyclocross bike that's easy and efficient to accelerate, calm when cornering or riding over rough terrain, and like a low-stack
