Riassunto
The Focus SAM enduro bike is praised for its lively and playful handling, making it a fun choice for riders looking for agility on the trails. Its suspension is noted for being plush and sensitive, though some reviews mention a lack of mid-stroke support and issues with high-speed stability. The bike's design updates and generous travel are highlights, but it faces criticism for rear suspension performance and value for money.
Lively and playful handling
Plush and sensitive rear suspension
Generous 170mm of travel
Updated design from previous model
Agile and lively geometry
Lacks mid-stroke support in suspension
Rear suspension wallows on descents and bobs on climbs
High-speed stability issues
Underpowered brakes in some builds
Questionable value for money
If fun’s your primary aim, then SAM’s your man, but to really push your speed, I’d look elsewhere.
Freeride ain’t dead! The FOCUS SAM 8.9 is the modern version of a classic freeride bike.
This big and burly 27.5in wheeled 170mm enduro bike is an update on the older 160mm SAM model, with changes to the linkage.

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.

Enduro race bike, super all-mountain tool or bike park toy? Before we tell you where this new Focus Sam sits in the Venn diagram, let's look at the details.

After testing this bike’s alloy predecessor some years ago, we’ve been waiting impatiently for the inevitable carbon version to arrive. And here it is; an uncompromising, stripped back, pure Enduro machine, itching to tear your favourite descent a new one. Construction This is a fantastic looking bike. From a humungous diamond shaped top tube, it …
Essentials-only Enduro slayer.
Lively and smooth suspension.
Rapid out of every corner.
Great climber.
Tyres and stem won't suit all riders' tastes.
No bottle mounts.
