Inspires you to escape the daily routine: The FOCUS JARIFA² motivates you to go on long rides thanks to the powerful Bosch Performance CX e-drive (Gen. 4) with a battery of up to 750 Wh. The integrated battery can be removed for charging.

Focus Jarifa bikes

*A high quality hardtail electric bike with efficient 27.5`` wheels, sophisticated mid-drive motor and impressive range
*Reinforced diamond frame with gusseted top tube, motor is positioned above the downtube for protection, both wheels offer quick release for easy trail maintenance
*Solid two year warranty, intuitive control panel, upgraded grips and hydraulic disc brakes, limited rack and fender options

Made in Germany

The motor driving the Jarifa 27R is a 250 watt mid-drive by Impulse 2.0 that offers 70 Newton meters of torque. For me it’s a mixed bag… You get increased range and efficiency with the smaller motor but have to work a bit harder for it than you would with the Bosch Centerdrive 350 watt system. With three assist modes to choose from, you can definitely dial the performance up and if you work with a certified Focus shop they can dial in “Climb Assist” settings which make the ride feel zippier as you pedal but use more energy inso doing. Given that this bike uses a mid-drive motor, you also benefit from mechanical efficiencies as you change from low to high gears. Use low for climbing and high for hitting that 20 mph top assisted speed. The bike can easily top this (especially when heading down hill) and there is no cogging or drag presented by the motor system as you might encounter with a gearless hub motor. The motor control system measures rear wheel speed, pedal cadence and pedal torque to activate and power the bike and it feels smooth but not quite as responsive in cutting out as the Bosch drive system

The battery powering the Focus Jarifa 27R offers an amazing 36 volts of power and 17 amp hours of capacity! That’s enough for 100+ miles on the lowest level of assist and I’m not sure any of the other ebikes I’ve tested can claim this kind of performance. Again, this would make a fun commuter for people with a bit of trail on the way to work (or those who prefer a rugged style). The battery pack itself is mounted low and center on the frame, includes a sturdy locking core for security and can be charged on or off the bike.

Our JARIFA² comes with a mountain bike geometry and is absolutely suitable for off-road use. Thanks to a shorter rear triangle, the JARIFA² rides agile, a 100 mm suspension fork and 29`` wheels with mountain bike tyres provide safety.
