Focus, the renowned German bicycle manufacturer, has unveiled significant updates to its e-mountain bike (eMTB) lineup for the 2027 model year. These enhancements encompass a streamlined naming convention, refreshed color schemes, and upgraded components across several models, including the JAM, SAM, and THRON series.<\/p>\n
Simplified Naming Convention<\/strong><\/p>\n In an effort to enhance clarity and consumer understanding, Focus has revised its eMTB model names by removing the “\u00b2” suffix previously denoting electric versions. This change reflects the brand’s commitment to simplifying its product lineup, as there are no longer equivalent non-electric models. Consequently, the JAM\u00b2, SAM\u00b2, THRON\u00b2, and THRON\u00b2 EQP have been rebranded to JAM, SAM, THRON, and THRON EQP, respectively.

This integration not only provides a sleek aesthetic but also offers improved screen protection and readability. All JAM, SAM, and THRON models are now equipped with the latest Bosch Performance Line CX Gen 5 motor, delivering up to 120Nm of torque, and are available with 600Wh or 800Wh batteries to cater to varying rider needs.

The high-end JAM LTD model is limited to 200 units and features a recyclable carbon fiber one-piece cockpit, Shimano XT Di2 with Autoshift, and a 600Wh battery for reduced weight. The JAM 9 and JAM 8 models come with the integrated Kiox 400C display, while the JAM 7 is equipped with the Purion 200 control\/display unit.
