Thoughts on Focus bikes?

I'm looking to get a bike for training/commuting/etc. but I want to keep it pretty reasonably priced. I have been scouring the internet to find something ~$900 in a 61cm or larger size, and it seems that a few retailers are selling Focus bikes for pretty cheap. Here's an example (and there's more out there...2010's, etc.):http://www.speedgoat.com/Catalog.aspx/Browse?Prod=18074

They are a German brand which seem to be decently popular overseas but don't have a lot of presence here. I've only found a few reviews and the biggest complaint is that their aluminum frames are a bit on the heavy side. But for a trainer, who cares, right? In the example linked above, you get a pretty nice spec for the money...

Any thoughts?
