Focus Atlas 8.7 Gravel Bike

The Focus Atlas 8.7 is built for riders who want one bike that can handle fast gravel loops, long mixed-surface days, bikepacking trips and everyday adventure riding. With a lightweight carbon frame, confident gravel geometry and a quality Shimano GRX 2x12 drivetrain, the Atlas 8.7 is made to push well beyond the bitumen.

The carbon frame keeps the ride efficient and responsive, while the carbon fork helps smooth out rough gravel, broken roads and corrugated tracks. Focus has also added its clever Prep Pocket with Prep Pack, giving you integrated frame storage for tools, spares or ride essentials without cluttering up the bike.

Shimano GRX 820 2x12 shifting gives the Atlas 8.7 a wide, usable gear range for everything from fast rolling roads to steep gravel climbs. Hydraulic GRX disc brakes provide reliable stopping power and control when the surface gets loose, rough or unpredictable.

Rolling on Schwalbe G-One R Pro 45mm tubeless-ready tyres, the Atlas 8.7 has the grip, comfort and speed needed for proper gravel riding. Add in DT Swiss G540 rims, a carbon seatpost, integrated cockpit routing and plenty of adventure-ready capability, and you have a seriously versatile gravel bike ready for big days out.

Best Suited For

Gravel riding, adventure rides, bikepacking, mixed-surface fitness riding and riders wanting one high-quality drop-bar bike that can do a bit of everything.
