What is the starting price for a Focus eMTB in 2026?
At Electric Bikes Brisbane, we've stocked Focus eMTBs since 2016. As the leading Brisbane Focus dealer, we don't just sell these bikes: Sam, our co-owner, rides a Focus Jam2 6.9. Alexander, our head technician, rides a Focus Sam2 6.7. Alex, our senior technician, rides a Focus Jam2 8.9. When you pick up a Focus eMTB from our Milton store, it's built, tuned and tested by people who ride the same trails you do.
The 2026 Focus eMTB range — Thron2, Jam2 and Sam2 — is the most complete redesign Focus has done in a decade. Every model has been rebuilt from the ground up: new geometry, new suspension platforms, and all now powered by the Bosch Performance Line CX (Gen 5) motor, delivering 85Nm as standard and tunable up to 120Nm via the Bosch eBike Flow app. We attended the Australian launch in Adelaide. In our view, this is the best electric mountain bike range Focus has ever made.
Three Official Focus Categories, One Trail-Ready Range
Focus classifies each of its eMTBs into an official bike category, which is a useful shortcut for matching the right bike to the right terrain:
Focus Thron2 — Category 3 Trail: Comfort and Adventure Touring
The Thron2 is the go-to bike in the Focus range for riders who want to do a bit of everything. With 150/140mm travel, custom-tuned suspension and Bosch Performance Line CX (Gen 5) power, it handles green and some blue-grade trails while keeping the long-distance capability Thron riders love — including transitioning from a rail trail one weekend to Daisy Hill's flow trails the next. The Thron2 6.7 starts at $6,299 and the top-spec Thron2 6.8 with ABS braking and RockShox Psylo Silver forks is $7,999.
Focus Jam2 — Category 4 All-Mountain: Every Trail, Every Day
The Jam2 is the all-mountain bike of the Focus range — fast, fun and capable on everything from green trails to black runs. The 2026 Jam2 has 160/150mm travel, redesigned geometry, and suspension tuned for traction on the way up and manoeuvrability on the way down. Sam, our co-owner, rode the Jam2 6.9 on Kombi at Ironbark after six months off the bike nursing a back injury — the bike took 30 seconds off her best-ever time. "Very planted through corners. Doesn't move around in the rough stuff. Going off drops and through rock gardens, it just holds its line," she said. The Jam2 6.7 starts at $6,499. The top-spec Jam2 6.9 with Fox 36 Performance Elite forks, DT Swiss wheels and Shimano Deore XT drivetrain is $9,499.
Focus Sam2 — Category 5 Enduro: Built for the Steep and Rough
The Sam2 is for thrill-seekers. With 170mm travel, coil shocks across the range, a 29"/27.5" mullet wheel setup and 4-piston brakes with 220mm rotors, the Sam2 is built to be ridden hard — on Pipeline at Gap Creek, down Mount Joyce off Clear Mountain, at Boomerang Bike Park, and on the fast, rough, jump-laden trails at Ironbark. In 2026, QLD eMTB and Masters 2 Downhill State Champion Ken West — an Electric Bikes Brisbane sponsored rider — raced his Focus Sam2 6.9 straight out of the box, taking the podium at the Renegade Gravity Enduro in Stanthorpe and first place at the Outlaw Downhill Series in Coffs Harbour. The Sam2 6.8 starts at $8,499. The top-spec Sam2 6.0 with RockShox ZEB Ultimate forks and SRAM GX AXS Transmission is $12,499.
Which Focus eMTB Category Is Right for You?
- Category 3 Trail (Thron2) is for you if: you want a comfortable, confident eMTB for flowy trails, rail trail adventures, and exploring SE QLD's national parks at your own pace. If touring and adventure is your primary focus, our Focus touring collection covers the Aventura2 range built specifically for that.
- Category 4 All-Mountain (Jam2) is for you if: you want an all-rounder that grows with your riding — greens, blues and blacks — fast and fun.
- Category 5 Enduro (Sam2) is for you if: you're an experienced rider chasing bigger terrain: Pipeline, Boomerang, Mount Joyce, Ironbark.

Bosch Performance Line CX (Gen 5) — What You Need to Know
All 2026 Focus eMTBs run the Bosch Performance Line CX (Gen 5) motor — smaller, quieter and lighter than the previous generation, delivering 85Nm standard and tunable up to 120Nm via the Bosch eBike Flow app. Sam rides 90% of her trail time in eMTB mode, switching to Turbo only for pinch climbs; Alexander customises his Flow app for max power from the first pedal stroke. Both approaches work — the Flow app lets you dial it to your style.
On range: Sam gets 50–55km from the standard 600Wh battery riding hard on trails like Kombi at Ironbark. One of our customers, at a higher body weight and running the motor tuned toward its 120Nm ceiling, was getting closer to 35km per ride and upgraded to the 800Wh battery option. For most riders doing two to three hours at a time, 600Wh is enough. All 2026 Focus eMTBs are pre-configured for the Bosch Powermore 250 range extender (850Wh total). We've been a Bosch eBike specialist since 2014.
Focus eMTBs and SE QLD Trails
From our Milton store, you can ride to the Gap Creek trail network in about 20 minutes. Here's a rough guide for the Focus range on SE QLD trails:
- New to mountain biking? Start at Daisy Hill — smooth flow trails, fire road connectors, nothing that will catch you off guard.
- Category 3 Trail territory: green and blue trails at Gap Creek, Daisy Hill, D'Aguilar.
- Category 4 All-Mountain territory: the full range — greens, blues and blacks at Ironbark, Bunya and Gap Creek, including Kombi, Wallaby, and the technical sections at the back of Ironbark.
- Category 5 Enduro territory: Pipeline at Gap Creek, Mount Joyce, Clear Mountain, Boomerang Bike Park, fast and rough trails at Ironbark.
Real Riders. Real Results.
Ken West — 2025 QLD eMTB and Masters 2 Downhill State Champion — raced his Focus Sam2 6.9 straight out of the box all season, taking the podium at Stanthorpe and the top step at the Outlaw Downhill Series in Coffs Harbour. In May 2026, ten Electric Bikes Brisbane customers completed the Orange 360 — 376km and 3,360m of climbing through central NSW. Neville, in his late 70s and coming from a road cycling background, completed the full route on his Focus Sam2 6.9. Rod, recently retired and new to cycling, completed it on his 2022 Focus Jam2. Many of our Focus eMTB customers are still riding the same bike four to five years later — not because they can't afford to upgrade, but because they don't want to.
Frequently Asked Questions About Focus eMTBs
What's the difference between the Focus Jam2 and the Focus Sam2?
The Jam2 (Category 4 All-Mountain, 160/150mm travel) is fast, fun and capable on green to black trails. The Sam2 (Category 5 Enduro, 170mm travel, coil shocks, mullet wheels, 220mm rotors) is a downhill and enduro machine for steep, rough terrain. The Jam2 is nimbler in tight terrain and climbs more efficiently; the Sam2 comes into its own the faster and rougher the trail gets. See our full Sam2 vs Jam2 comparison guide for real owner experience switching between the two.
Is the Focus Sam2 suitable for beginners?
Not really — the Sam2 is built for experienced riders chasing bigger terrain. For beginners, the Thron2 (Category 3 Trail) is the better starting point, with relaxed geometry, capable suspension and room to progress. Daisy Hill is our recommended first trail for new mountain bikers in Brisbane.
