I suggest another consideration might be the after sales service / warranty. Downunder I'm having no luck with Focus dealer but have never had any issues with Trek (I've own 2 Trek acoustics) .

Any Canberra riders up for forming a social group for weekly (or other) rides.

Plenty of jealously no doubt coming your way ;)

Ha. cheers mate... yeah the local dealer is simply not up to the task... thus my reaching out to the community. Give me the last 4 numbers and ill give the ceo a ring.

Thanks yes I have placed a new bolt but the rocker is damaged. Was hoping a direct line to Focus may have assisted

I like to think i will be riding another 10 years. I'm 57 and am now 2 years on my first emtb. I'm of the opinion emtbs (and ebikes in general) will allow the older riders to ride at a much older age than when simple acoustic bikes were around. I live in Canberra which is bike friendly with lots...

I posted end July under following tag 'FOCUS JAM 2 - SQUEAK / STRIPPED THREAD AT ROCKER AND TOP OF REAR SHOCK ' . Found out that the bolt and rocker are stripped and so I requested both parts romrm the dealer to whom I bought the bike from in Dec 19. (part request 2.8.21) After continual visits...

Now that sounds like a fun weekend. Tathra, beach and test ride some Sl and kinevos... I did do a quick lap of the bikie store carpark on the Sl and it felt a lot like my Trek Fuel geometry wise..oh the choices.

I wash my mtb shoes (3 pairs of) in the washing machine often. My mates usually ask if I have bought new shoes such is the usual result of a good wash.

yeah I'm liking the lighter weight. That is what swayed me back in 2019. I rode the levo and trek (both 2018 models) for a couple of days and they had a truck feel... the focus was the most authentic trail bike feel at the time. need to try the orbea rise abd do a full day or 2 on the levo SL

Nice... Cube is going gangbusters here in Aust. They sell out as they hit the floor. They have some great value bikes. Im hitting 2500Km so are you saying a E8000 will bomb out pretty soon???

cheers... the lighter weight option is swaying me more than battery... but need a brand with better back up service than i am currently getting from Focus here in Aust.

Im of 2 minds: The Focus has been lots of fun and I'm chatting with Trailwatts re an 252wh extender. Unfortunately the Focus dealer i bought from here in Canberra leaves much to be desired. i have been chasing a new rocker / both for over 3 months. So Im starting to think time for a new bike...

Thanks for the reply... i have read a few reviews poo hooing the Ebooz. Im corresponding with trailwatts now and am likely to buy.

Thanks for the reply. Yours and another recommendation is likely to sway me. I have been in contract with Trailwatts and they replied straight away which gives me confidence...lets see what the shipping time to Australia is.

Hi all an update... i got the Oakley Plazmas from Googleman in Adelaide. Totally recommend this dispenser. They sent out a sample packbeing Oakley Plazma Wiley Gravity Wiley Brick Uvex 225 the Oakleys suited my thin ish face the best (so wifey said) cost $840 AUD with for mutlifocal and all...

Ok I guess many of us are in the enviable position of being able to afford an upgrade / new emtb. My question is at what point have you upgraded?? My current ride is a 2019 Jam2 9.6..so light-ish at 21 kg but only 378 battery. What would you upgrade to??

Hi Iv'e got a 2019 9.6 Jam2 with the 378 battery...and while I very rarely run it down I'm thinking of an extender..but dislike the look of the Focus TEC pack. (also a few reviews say ride performance goes out the window with the wide-ish TEC pack). What are peoples experience with the...

how about night riding ??

thanks... you saved me from going down this rabbit hole. the idea of sample was appealing....alas I think I'd prefer a non insert
