    Hi guys...
    Thinking about buyin a focus izalco pro 1 2013 edition...just a few questions on the 2013 model that someone might be able to help me with,
    Compered to the 2012 model ( bike of the year winner)

    The 2012 model used the same frame as the top of the range team models, is the 2013 frame on the pro series the same as the higgest team frame available?

    The pro 1 2013 model comes with a focus fork compared to the 3t fork on the 2012...has anyone any experience with the focus fork compared to the 3t fork?

    I more or less am looking to know has focus down graded the frame on the 2013 model compared to the 2012.

    If there is any focus dealers on here or anyone that has experience of both bikes can comment that would be great.

    Thanks
    Chris.

    I can't see any difference between the 2012 and the 2013 frame apart from the fork. I have read somewhere that they are the same.

    Focus also maintained in early press releases that their 2013 carbon fork was an improvement on the 3T one. I do notice however that they still use a 3T fork on their top of the range Team models.

    Great bikes and priced well.

    Cheers for the reply,
    I'm happier if they havn't changed the frame.....its just there website lists the team bikes with a 'sl' frame compared to the pro frames...i honestly hope the 2013 frame rides as good as the 2012 frame is ment to....
