Just picked up this Focus Izalco Pro 2012. Put around 100 miles on it over the last few weeks and have been loving it but I am ready to start upgrading it. Currently have only changed the handlebar tape and the tubes (these tires are probably around 8 years old) current set is 700x23cc. I want to upgrade to the Conti GC 5000 in a 700x28cc, will this fit? I tried to attach photos of the clearance. I honestly would’ve wanted a new rim set but I think its too expensive and since I am a new rider I dont know if it would make a huge difference.

Also, any good upgrades you think I should do? Currently I have my eyes on clip in pedals, and already ordered a new saddle bag with the whole flat tire set up ready to go!

Thanks for any advice!!

After 2 years with the AFD wing… finally got rid of it. Nothing was wrong with it but I was able to trunk swap another VB owner who was selling his car.

Noble wing looks so much better to me since it angles down instead of up. Attached a second pic of the old AFD wing for reference.

Gonna vinyl wrap the middle deck to hide some blemishes but so happy to have this since I couldn’t stop getting irked by the old wing every time I looked at my car

What would you guys price this m3 at? Spoke w owner and they would be interested in getting rid of it, but also said they are okay with keeping onto it to get it fixed up again.

As far as i know hasnt ran in the last 12 years. Whats a realistic price?
