FOCUS Bikes via YouTube
Not your average dreambuild video: Matze takes you into our sacred halls, where he builds the custom FOCUS VAM² SL from the ground up. Along the way, you’ll not only get tons of Swabian DIY knowledge but also valuable tips and tricks!
Note for all non-German-speaking viewers: We’re working on the subtitles! But Matze went full turbo mode and generated around 500 lines of subtitles – so yeah, it’s taking a while. 😂 We’re on it, though! Promise! 🙂
