Now I'm not one to moan, and I'm a firm believer in that you get what you pay for, however I got a focus cyclox bike from wiggle and so far I have had to replace the bearings in the bottom bracket twice and it's only 8 months old. I have now given up and am putting on a new chainset. Pretty f'ing poor especially as I contacted Focus and got not reply, and Wiggle told me bearings aren't covered under their warranty.
Buyer beware

    If you've been riding through deep water or in heavy rain then it's a common problem with virtually-all external bearing bottom brackets - TBH your beef should be with the component manufacturers who have fobbed us of with a cr@p design and it's nothing to do with Focus or Wiggle.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
