Reviews 

Check out what the cycling industry has to say on the Focus Atlas 8.9, from in-depth reviews to a few videos on what the bike is like to ride. 

BikeRadar
"The Atlas 8.9 is a bit of a workhorse chameleon and a bike for big adventures. It’s happy to carry your possessions, and traverse on tarmac and unmetalled roads, ramble through woodlands, dales, and mountains, all the while covering ground with confidence. It won’t embarrass itself if you decide that an excursion onto twisting singletrack or downhill thrill seeking is what you’re after. The Atlas frameset is certainly firm, built to serve its Transcontinental-esque purposes. However, it’s very well specced to compensate for this."
Bike Rumour
"Since its debut two winters ago, Focus’ Atlas bikepacking gravel bike has been less about going faster, and more about enjoying the adventure along the way. Now with a new carbon frame upgrade, the Focus Atlas 8-series aims to speed up the adventure graveling a bit too, while boosting rider comfort so you can ride further than ever before…"
