PURE PEDALING EFFICIENCY<br />
You can’t touch a hardtail for pure pedaling efficiency, and under a good rider on a smooth course<br />
it can be a pretty tough combination. This is grassroots racing. Offroad speed simplified. And our<br />
Dakotas are possibly the very best available.<br />
A triple-butted Kinesis aluminum frame with our signature geometry provides the foundation for the<br />
Dakota series, with a lightweight carbon monostay for the Elite and Comp that reduces weight and takes<br />
the sting out of sharp-edged stutters and the occasional hard landing. It’s a great sprinting platform, with<br />
short chainstays that lend you climbing traction and immediate pedal response for getting over the steeps.<br />
The Dakota Comp Femme receives the additional benefit of female-specific frame geometry, and like the rest of<br />
the Dakota line (make that: like the rest of the JAMIS line) gets size-specific parts like handlebars, stems and cranks<br />
for each frame size so you’re assured the most comfortable and efficient position.<br />
Experience the thrill of a well-carved turn, the surging power of a quick out-of-the-saddle effort, and you’ll see just<br />
what a difference a good frame and geometry can make. And that difference is what we’re all about.<br />
The beauty of Dakota Elite and Comp’s carbon fiber monostay (besides its’ great looks) is that it<br />
not only reduces frame weight, but it also increases stiffness while capitalizing on carbon fiber’s<br />
capacity to damp and absorb vibration. Blending this carbon fiber monostay with triple-butted<br />
aluminum main tubes enables us to build an extremely light, extraordinarily stiff frame (with<br />
a 31.6mm seat mast for a superior in-the-saddle/up-the-hill pedal platform) that still provides<br />
a remarkably resilient ride.<br />
