Focus FOCUS SAM² 6.7 Review

The FOCUS SAM² 6.7 is the shred machine in the portfolio of German E-MTB manufacturers Focus. With lush suspension travel and low-lying battery, the Stuttgart engineers want to have made the bike fit for the gnarliest descents on this planet.
The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. The Bosch motor takes away the fear of even the steepest ramps. The combination of a very natural riding feeling and a dynamic power delivery characterises the Bosch Performance Line CX. The well-tuned riding modes cater to bikers of all preferences. The average range can become a problem especially for long mountain bike rides.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Focus FOCUS SAM² 6.7 in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (6000) .

The SR Suntour chassis provides safety and traction, even when the trail gets rougher. However, it comes to its limit at high speed. The thick 38mm stanchions on the fork provide an extra dose of steering precision and performance. Especially for heavy riders, the Focus brakes could be a problem. With four pistons they only decelerate averagely. The average shifting components and accessories leave some tuning potential open. For most e-bikers, this should be an acceptable point. The reach - or rather the main frame - of the Focuss is long. This puts the FOCUS SAM² 6.7 right on trend. The remaining values from the geometry table also orientate this bike according to the zeitgeist and leave a really thought-through impression.

Conclusion


Expirience with the Focus FOCUS SAM² 6.7

If you want to experience the much-vaunted uphill flow, the FOCUS SAM² 6.7 is a hot candidate for you. Overall, the FOCUS SAM² 6.7 due to a very good geometry and a good motor is a good climber for tours on extremely demanding single trails. But with a mediocre groupset and an average range there are also criticisms that come with the overall package. The generous warranty of 6 years proves that Focus stands behind its products.
