    Hi,

    I want to sell my bike. It's 10 months old. I did round 3.7k km.
    It has Deore parts. Very good armadilo tyres. Comfortable bar ends.
    Wireless computer Cateye CC-VT100W. Hydration bottle with cage. Front mudguard you can see the rear on picture, but I'm keeping it.

    I give two offroad tyres few tubes for both types of tyres and a pump.
    Plus shimano dura ace chain I took off from my other bike.

    385 euro - price is slightly negotiable.

    Can any of the forum regulars give me a review on this bike?



    omri:

    How heavy is the the bike?
    I'm just under 6ft so is the size suitable for me?
    I already have a bike I use for road cyciling and commuting so would this suit my off road / rough trail needs?

    Where are you located?

    how heavy can't tell maybe 15kg or more
    I have 195cm and it was bit too small for me

    I've read that they're pretty good bikes made in Germany. Brand isn't recognized so much as the others tho.

    focus bikes in general are well respected. wiggle.co.uk sell them and a lot of them have been reviewed in the uk press since thet started selling them, usually 9/10.

    what exact model is this one?

    I assume that makes you about 6 foot 6 then?

    I'd be around 180 cm I think. I assume you have the seat and bars raised if your 195cm and that they would probably suit me if put back?

    Can you post up the model name so I can do a quick google?

    Commiserations, that really sucks.

    Probably not a common bike around here, I'll keep an eye out.

    Sorry to hear that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 882 ✭✭✭cunnins4


    Ah sh!t, that sucks man. I've a focus road bike myself, the brand seems to be very rare so hopefully you'll get it back. Keep an eye on the buyandsell.

    BTW, were you cycling through ballymun last wednesday ~5.30? I saw a guy on a focus just like yours and it struck me that it was the only other one i'd seen around? Was it you by any chance?


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,693 ✭✭✭omri


    no I've stopped using it since I got my road bike.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,693 ✭✭✭omri


    telling the truth I don't expect to get it back :(
