CROSS COUNTRY<br />
CROSS COUNTRY<br />
The shortest distance between two points might be a straight line, but<br />
Mother Nature doesn’t always provide us one. Which is where we come in.<br />
If there is a trail, no matter how meandering, we guarantee a <strong>Jamis</strong> cross-<br />
country bike will be the fastest, funnest way to connect Points A and B.<br />
We’ve been building mountain bikes since the very beginning. 1979 to be exact.<br />
Tires were narrow, frames were steel, forks were rigid, and full-suspenders were<br />
years-away pipe dreams. But we made the most of it, earning a reputation for trail-<br />
tough, race-proven designs that squeezed the very most from what was available.<br />
And while the technology has clearly evolved, we’re just as aggressive about getting<br />
the most from what’s out there. And it shows.<br />
Hit the dirt with a Dakar XCR Team or Pro and feel the benefits of a carbon composite<br />
frame that tips the scales at 2100 grams. Size-specific, tri-axial oval carbon tubing and our<br />
proven mp3 multi-link rear suspension design, with 4 inches of fully active travel, give you<br />
superb bump control and a firm, responsive platform that doesn’t waste a watt of climbing<br />
energy, or hold you back when the going’s fast.<br />
Throw a leg over the Dakar XC, and discover the go-fast attributes of one of the most race-<br />
proven, trail-validated designs in the world. It tracks true, taking steering inputs with laser-guided<br />
precision, and offers up 90 mm of travel to soak up bumps. It’s no wonder our Dakar XCR’s and XC’s<br />
have earned multiple World Cup and NORBA victories. With more to come.<br />
The Dakota is a featherweight package that sets the standards for hardtail performance. Its triple-<br />
butted aluminum frame is a lightweight wonder—stiff up front for stand-on-the-pedals power and<br />
drive-hard-into-corners rigidity with an incredibly light carbon monostay that provides some vertical<br />
give without sacrificing torsional and lateral stiffness, so it carves bends cleanly and quickly.<br />
And then there’s the Dragon series, state-of-the-art steel chassis providing that taut-yet-resilient ride only<br />
steel can bring. The top dog Dragon Team frame kit, the race-ready Dragon Pro or the ride all-day/everyday<br />
Dragon Comp. It is classic geometry and material, mated to the very best components money can buy for a<br />
timelessly quick, capable package that cuts to the chase for minimal complexity and maximum fun.<br />
Make the most of your trail time, and make tracks between A and B on a proven <strong>Jamis</strong> XC bike. Out on the trail,<br />
where performance, reliability and speed are the only standards that matter, nothing else comes close.<br />
