Well proportioned and specced, but limited sizes and rear-end support hold the SAM back
Impressive spec and lively handling
Cockpit set up, pronounced outboard lock-on rings on grips

A fun, all-mountain style bike rather than a dedicated race bike, the Focus SAM 9.9 shines on the flowing jumps and berms of the bike-park.

The FOCUS SAM was left pretty much untouched over the last five years – but this has changed now. With its modern geometry, the F.O.L.D. rear-end and 170 mm of travel the second generation of the FOCUS SAM wants to do exactly what the old version was – only better. We’ll tell you how the […]

The FOCUS SAM² PRO should please those of us who love good design! With its slender silhouette and harmonious proportions, it can’t, at first glance, be identified as an eMTB. But is it more than just a good-looking bike? NEW: Before we get into the review, we would like to tell you about our latest […]

Well now SAM makes a return, but this time in carbon, with updated geometry and construction to put it in the upper echelons of Enduro contenders. We’ve got the top tier SAM C Team on review, at a hair under nine thousand dollars. That’s a lot of bucks, so we’re hoping for a lot of …
