Samenvatting

The Focus SAM enduro bike is praised for its lively and playful handling, making it a fun ride that excels in agility and quick direction changes. Its plush rear suspension and comfortable setup are highlights, though some reviews note issues with rear suspension support and high-speed stability. The bike's design updates and burly build cater to enduro enthusiasts, but its value and braking performance have been points of contention.

  • Plush rear suspension

  • Comfortable setup

  • Agile and lively geometry

  • Updated design for enduro riding

Cons
  • Rear suspension support issues

Key Quotes
If fun’s your primary aim, then SAM’s your man, but to really push your speed, I’d look elsewhere.
BikeRadar logoBikeRadar
The springy suspension feel, in combination with the small sizing, makes the bike feel super-agile, but also a little twitchy at high speed, which holds it back when racing.

Freeride ain’t dead! The FOCUS SAM 8.9 is the modern version of a classic freeride bike.
Enduro Mountainbike Magazine logoEnduro Mountainbike Magazine
It’s not a high-speed plough on the hunt for seconds on the clock, but it’ll turn any trail into a large playground.
Enduro Mountainbike Magazine logoEnduro Mountainbike Magazine
This big and burly 27.5in wheeled 170mm enduro bike is an update on the older 160mm SAM model, with changes to the linkage.

FOCUS SAM 8.9 in review

jul 2019 · Christoph Bayer

In times when the routine watchwords in bike development are "longer" and "slacker" the FOCUS SAM 8.9 looks almost old-fashioned.

Hoogtepunten
  • Agile and playful handling

  • A fun bike that's guaranteed to put a smile on your face

  • Sensitive rear suspension

Dieptepunten
  • Rear suspension wallows on the descents and bobs on the climbs

  • Brakes are underpowered

  • Poor value for money

Hoogtepunten
  • Impressive spec and lively handling

Dieptepunten
  • Cockpit set up, pronounced outboard lock-on rings on grips

Review | The 2019 Focus SAM 9.9 delivers a few surprises for a 170mm travel enduro bike

mrt 2019 · Rik Legge

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.
