Magazine reviews for Focus Variado Expert 2008
Review from 220 Triathlon
Said of the 2006 model...
Upgraded Ultegra transmission hands off a civilized frame that rolls on quality wheels for a complete bike that'd compete with most £1,000 plus bikes.
In conclusion...
The Focus delivers an astonishing
amount of bike for this price tag.
