Focus updated the Izalco Max for 2026 and gave the bike a refreshed look with several new colours. Technically the 9-series now all feature an integrated power meter and a Reserve One Piece cockpit.

Top of the range is the 9.9 model that comes in a modest but appealing grey colour. The MAX Aero carbon frame is aerodynamic optimized and with only 865 grams extremely light. The fork adds 400 grams to the weight.

The new Reverse integrated handlebar adds to the aerodynamic performance as well and gives the cockpit a clean look. The bottom bracket section has been reinforced to increase stiffness, the fork for lateral stiffness.

The geometry is engineered for easier cornering and more stability in all conditions. At high speeds.
