My LBS is a Focus dealer. Are they any good?

I've never actually ridden one but I do occasionally train with someone that does own one, in fact owns two! One is an alu equipped with 105 which he uses for training, and the other is a carbon fibre equipped with dura ace Di. He raves about both of them and all the write ups I've read always come back with good reviews. Certainly a bit more left field than the usual Trek, Giant etc. Good bikes I'd say.

My Dad has had a Cayo for about 7 years now and it has served him very well.
Also decided to buy a touring bike following that experience.

It would be next year if at all. They may also be taking on Felt bikes....

Focus make very high quality bikes for an amazing price. They are owned /made by the same company that make e bikes for us and whenever we visit the factory we are impressed by the r&d and testing they go through. Great product at a great price! Cervelo are built by the same guys if that means anything!

I've just bought a Cayo Evo 6. It's bloody marvevlous. Wanted an Evo 1.0, but couldn't justify it (it looks brill, but won't make me any more comfortable).

I can see how that would complicate things, I really like the Felt AR series...
