Focus are one of the first brands to release a bike with the new Bosch Performance CX Gen4 motor. The Jam2 features a 625Wh battery integrated into the downtube which is removable for charging. Visually the bike isn't quite as perfect as the fully integrated Shimano bikes however it does give you that option to remove the battery and also has the bigger capacity as standard.
Bosch have developed the Performance CX new drive unit which provides 75NM torque. The mandate here was to provide an E-MTB motor to compete against the modulated Shimano Steps E8000 system and Bosch have achieved this. The new Performance CX motor in E-MTB mode responds extremely sensitively providing assistance between 140-350% assistance. This sensitivity enables riders to tackle trails aggressively without the worry of too much power and surging.
