The JARIFA² 6.8 is a plain hardtail for commuters or for light touring on gravel and asphalt. Commendable: There are numerous mounting options in the frame for bottle cages, locks or other accessories.
The Performance Line CX from Bosch shows impressively that they shouldn't be limited to DIY and household products. No matter how steep or technical the climb is: the Bosch motor makes it conquerable! At the same time, the drive provides a very well-rounded feeling while riding with a dynamic power delivery. This great combination mixed with lots of power, is something only a few other motors at Bosch's level can achieve. Thanks to the very good range, you should no longer have any range problems even on very long tours.

At a glance

The most importanten ratings of the Focus JARIFA² 6.8 in comparison to the competitor bikes of following categorie: (4000) .

Rough descents take the good SR Suntour fork brand its course, though not with the calmness of a top-end fork. Taking a holistic approach also includes looking at the gearing and components. The components are of good qualtiy and offer no reason for criticism here. When it comes to the geometry, Focus does not go completely crazy. The head tube angle and reach values were chosen with care. The result: A balanced riding behaviour with a good combination of playfulness and straight-line stability.

Value for money

Conclusion


Expirience with the Focus JARIFA² 6.8

For long tours, the JARIFA² 6.8 with a very strong range, a good motor and a good fork is well equipped. Only with a poor brake system you have to look away. With 6 years of warranty, nothing stands in the way of a long-term relationship.
