The 55mm stem was the stem that came on the bike. It also had 0mm rise 760 bars. I went up 20mm rise on the bars and went down 20mm on the stem as noted. What I noticed is the front end got a lot lighter and that made the bike more lively. Steep climbs were a bit of a challenge but I never...
So the Jam2 came with a 55mm stem. When I changed the bars I decided to go with a 35mm stem as they seem to be all the rage. I am going back to the 55mm stem as my knees seem to close to the bars. Broke the cheap top cap that cam on the Focus so waiting for a replacement. This one will be...
They do. You need to get Di2 compatible bars if you want to keep the clean look. BBB makes some nice ones. I can't get them over here (in the USA) so I had to go with PRO Tharsis Trail Riser Di2 bars in carbon fiber since I wanted 800mm 20mm rise.
Well I have taken the Niner out twice now and I have to say.... I will be keeping my Focus Jam2!! The Niner is a great bike. I love the light wight and nimble handing and it's a bit eraser to jump but the no assist has me gasping for air! I have a sore throat from breathing so hard just trying...
I have gotten use to the wight of the ebike and so I am willing to guess I will have a lot of fun on a bike half the LB's. My girlfriend got a Trek Fuel EX 7 to go along with her Haibike sduro fullseve3.0. We took them to the Tuthill campground bike park in Flagstaff and she barely rode the...
Funny you should mention that you may sell your ebike. While I can't see doing that mainly because my best friend has the endurance of Lance Armstrong and it's the only way I can keep up with him, The sales man of the Niner told me I would be ditching the ebike after I get out on the Niner for...
I got back into MTB riding a little less than a year age. A good friend of mine got me wanting in but I would only do it on a EMTB. well it has worked out great! at 53 years old and not in the best cardio shape it was the smartest thing I could have done to not turn me off from MTB riding.

Winters in the high desert are great! No need to get up at the crack of dawn to beat the heat. More than likely I will get 65 F / 18 c sunny days to play...
Unfortunately for me the closest is 375 miles away. The shop I bought the bike from is working on a warranty battery from Focus. The bike works great and all so I'm not upset about it. as long as I get it fixed before warranty runs out I'm good :) What is strange is the 4A charger wouldn't...
I just got a brand new 4 amp charger last week. My internal battery has been charging with my 4.5 amp battery charger but it does not shut off. It blinks from green to red when the battery is fully charged but doesn't seem to be damaging anything. The shop I bought the bike from sent me a brand...
No problem. That is actually a great price since Focus pulled out of the US. Get it while you can, you won't see them after the few that are here dry up.
Hi everyone. Just wanted to say hi! I'm 53 (soon to be 54) year old EMTB rider and love it. Lots of trails here in the desert. Great forum you have here! Lots of great info and great people! Have a great week!
