Focus SAM² 6.9 E-Mountain Bike
Built for the steep, rough, and rowdy of South Australia
The SAM² 6.9 is Focus’s flagship gravity machine — an enduro beast designed to dominate descents across Cleland, Fox Creek, and the steep gullies around Mount Lofty. With its coil-shock design, adjustable geometry, and “mullet” wheel layout, it’s engineered to be fearless, stable, and refined. Whether you’re bombing a DH track or linking big mountain loops, this is your go-to SA gravity weapon.

Why We Love It
The SAM² 6.9 is a no-compromise descent machine for South Australian riders who live for gravity. It’s built to feel planted at high speed, smooth over brutal rock gardens, and responsive through tricky corners. That coil shock gives exceptional traction on rough, fast descents while the 38 Factory fork eats hits from drop-offs, roots, and jumps. The adjustable geometry lets you tune your ride — slack and long for high-speed stability, or tighter and agile when the trail demands it.
Whether you’re launching into Cleland’s black runs, descending the Fox Creek DH track, or linking enduro loops through the Adelaide Hills, the SAM² 6.9 delivers confidence, control, and excitement — every ride.
