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.

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.

Why We Like It

The Atlas 8.7 hits a great balance between speed, comfort and practicality. It is light enough to feel sharp on a fast gravel ride, but still tough and versatile enough for rougher backroads, multi-day adventures and loaded riding.

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.

The JAM is the 150mm all-mountain trail fully of FOCUS. With its playful and intuitive character, you get the most fun out of every ride. Agile and direct handling merges with a lot of safety resources of the chassis providing confidence and joy on any downhill. You are perfectly seated in the middle of the mountain bike to control any situation and to easily pedal up all the steep hills on your ride.

The FLIP CHIP at your linkage can be used to adjust your geometry to an even more aggressive riding style. The small adjustment of the head angle from 65,5° to 65° changes your set-up making it even more downhill-oriented. The specially developed C.I.S. (Cockpit Integration Solution) design ensures a clean cockpit and constantly seamless shifting and braking. All cables run from the handlebar into the stem and through the headset into the frame.
