Hi and welcome. I’m Long Eaton based, just had my second ride out on my Focus Jam at cannock. Loving every minute

I think they are 2.8. Really slippy at Cannock. I’ve got minions on my Bird Aeris and might look at swapping to similar. Everyone seems to be raving about the new eddy currents, if you can find them.

First trip out. Cannock, a very wet Cannock. These bikes are awesome. Really impressed, eco most of the ride with a couple of bursts of trail and boost. Doing the uphill switchbacks in anything other than eco is mad as the bike pushes the front end away. Managed full monkey trail and the round...

I’ve only gone and bought one. Picking up Thursday afternoon a brand new 2017 Focus Jam 2 Plus Pro. Came down to spec/£££, I could of had a 2018 Trek or a 2019 Cube for the price but the spec and ride won me over. Thanks for the tips provided

Going to look this morning. It’s probably going to be between the Focus Jam 2 plus pro 2017 or a Trek Powerfly 8 FS LT 2018. They’ve moved the focus from another shop. Both new just older models. Both about £3500 although I am looking at the 2019 Cube as they also stock them, possibly the 140...

Ah yes. Confused already. The focus has the Shimano motor. I best go look

I’ve found a high spec 2017 Focus, brand new, but would need to know if I can update the software so it runs the emtb mode. I’ll keep looking

Thanks. I like the look of the Trek and also the Focus but will definitely try before I buy. I need to understand about batteries and range a bit more as the focus has the smallest capacity but with the option of second battery.

Hi everyone I’m Simon. I’m looking for my first emtb mainly to help me get up the hills. Going for a look tomorrow. Any hints and tips welcome.
