I am currently looking into purchasing a new frameset.

I'm interested in the Focus Izalco Max (2015 or 2016) but I am struggling to find it anywhere as a frameset.

The only link I can find is to Sigma Sport where the 2016 frameset was available but is now sold out.

Also, I cannot find the geometry details for the frame. The Focus website has a very basic 'specification' tab which doesn't give any of the necessary measurements or angles for the frame.

I plan to contact the UK distributor on Monday but if anyone is able to assist with either query in the meantime I would be very grateful.

Thanks!

on the Iz Max page, under the AG2R video, are tabs, one is Geometry.

I bought an Izalco Max frameset last year, as I wanted to build it up with campagnolo record and shamal mille wheels. They are often called a "sponsorship" frameset. Your local distributor should be able to give you more detailed geometry info. If you are offered one with the 'Acros' headset, swap it out for somthing more conventional - the acros are a p.o.s!

They are a great frame!

the geometry-chart on 2016-website is rubbish, angles are wrong, and obviously they dont manage to correct it.
on 2015-side you find a chart with correct angles:
