It's hard to say mate. To be honest, you will be fine and I'm sure there are riders on here who are a similar weight too! A bike is a bike but to be honest, I think the main consideration will be suspension in your case - you may need to upgrade it.

I know GMBN did a video here about how weight can lower your range and the presenter weighed just over 100kg so I think you will be fine mate.

According to the Focus manual page En-10, the max permitted weight of bike and rider is 120kg.

So if your bike weighs 21kg, then your riding weight should not exceed 99kg. Focus explain why they have this limitation: "..this can result in the fracturing or failing of important safety parts (such as the brakes). If this happens while you are riding, it can lead to severe falls - with fatal consequences."

It's up to you what you do with that information.

I am currently 114kg and have done 1500km on my Focus Jam2 over the last three and a half months. New Chain and Brake Pads. no other issues. so you should be fine.
