Focus First Expert 2009

The Focus First Expert uses a high-modulus lightweight carbon frame coupled with a pair of Rockshox Reba Race RL forks with 120mm of travel to give the ultimate XC ride.

Using Focus's FIRST (Full Integrated Rear Suspension Technology) system allows the rear shock to be located in the top tube creating a sleek looking full suspension mtb. The Focus First Expert also uses high modulus carbon fibre to create a frame which is lightweight and stiff. The frame features a pair of Rockshox Reba Race RL forks giving a large 120mm of travel resulting in a smooth and exhilarating ride whatever the conditions underneath you and the bike. This pure racing machine also features Shimano Deore XT components coupled with the Hayes Stroker Trail hydraulic brakes. The rear shock, RockShox, Monarch 3.3 Air 165 mm/38mm, neatly sits on the top tube thanks to the F.I.R.S.T. system giving unparalleled ride comfort and instant access to adjustment and lockout controls. Shimano Deore XT also provides the gearing in the shape of their FC-M770 triple chainset and coupled with a rear cassette ratio of 11-34T, should get you up the steepest of climbs without getting off the bike. FSA provides the bars/stem and seatpost with Fi:zik supplying the comfort in the shape of their Tundra saddle. DT Swiss X-1900 provides the wheelset encased with Continental Mountain King tyres. This is truly a racing machine that can handle any terrain you place within its path.
