Bikes

Every Jamis youth bike uses size-specific items like grips, saddles, and cranks that enhance comfort and control by providing the best possible bike fit. We focus on designing frames with low stand-overs to take much of the awkwardness out of getting on board and dismounting after. We trim as much weight as we can with lightweight aluminum frames on many of the youth models and use aluminum parts where possible to work towards that make-it-as-light-as-possible goal.

SIDEWALK ADVENTURER Everyone remembers their first bike; the combination of freedom and fun. That bike needs to be fun, comfortable and safe, which is why Laser 16 features a lightweight aluminum frame, removable training wheels, and BMX-style handlebars and saddle. LIGHTWEIGHT ALLOY FRAME Extra weight is the enemy of any bike. This is especially true for youth bikes, when the riders themselves are relatively light-weight. It’s tough to beat the cost-to-weight ratio of aluminum, which is why Laser 16 features a lightweight 6061 aluminum frame. This keeps the overall weight down, making the bike much more fun and easy to ride. TRAINING WHEELS INCLUDED When it comes to learning to ride a bike, building confidence is the name of the game. Laser 16 is equipped with training wheels, so young riders can build that confidence safely. - Lightweight 6061 aluminum MX-moto frame design - Tubular unicrown fork, MX Hi-Ten, straight blades - Electro-plated black steel rims, steel front and Hi-Stop coaster brake rear hubs - CST Dirt Knobbie tires - BMX high-impact resin pedals - Hi-Stop rear coaster brake - BMX style handlebar with a safety bell - Jamis BMX Jr. saddle

TAKES YOU ANYWHERE The dual-sport DXT's are pumped-up, go-anywhere/do-anything versions of our Allegro fitness bikes. With more gearing range to take on steeper hills and tougher terrain. Wider tires with a trail-capable tread for access to more riding areas, both paved and packed. And disc brakes and suspension forks for real off-road exploration and off-pavement adventure GIVING YOU A BREAK The advantages of disc brakes over rim brakes on a versatile bike like the DXT far exceed their sole disadvantage, weight gain. Besides their incredible power and modulation, they're just plain safer, especially in the rain. Once rims get wet or muddy, using friction to stop the wheel at its circumference is less efficient than using friction to stop a less wet or muddy small diameter disc near the center of the wheel from rotating. And eliminating the rim from braking surface duties results in a longer lasting wheel.

EASY ACCESS We're super proud of the Citizen's sleek frame design. With an arcing top tube for the "Men's" frames and S-bend top and down tubes for a super-low step-through "Women's" version. In fact, we hesitate to designate either with gender specific labels because the version with the easy-access, low step-over top tube is suitable for anyone with limited hip flexibility who might be challenged to swing a leg over the rear wheel when mounting & dismounting. EASY ON THE NECK & BACK A usual complaint from new or returning riders trying to get into the cycling groove is feeling uncomfortably perched forward with too much weight on their wrists and having to crank their necks backwards just to be able to see in traffic. We specifically designed our Citizens to remedy this. The large diameter 700c wheels push handlebar height up and shorter top tubes pull handlebars closer to the saddle, all to mitigate forward lean. Our 4-inch rise handlebars sweep back at a natural hand-grasp angle with a long-quilled or angle-adjustable stem that allows for a wide range of adjustment to tune handle bar height and reach perfectly for each ride. GEARED TO GO The shifting systems on all our Citizens feature long cage rear derailleurs, full-size 48/38/28T triple-chainring cranksets (single 44t chainring for Citizen base model) and big 11-32T or 14-34T gearing in the back. This gives you the dual advantage of having fairly tall gears for controlled pedaling at speed on descents as well as really low gearing for easier pedaling uphill. It's a rider-friendly combination that's made the Citizens a perennial favorite of recreational cyclists.

The Sun Revolutions mixes a modern spin with a classic design. Its extra-long wheel base, upright riding position, and super-wide tires all come together to make for an effortless ride. This 7-speed version provides plenty of hill-climbing gear options and linear-pull brakes deliver reliable speed control on the way down. Stability at slow speeds and easy handling make this the obvious choice for a day at the beach or a cruise around the neighborhood.

PUSHING THE BOUNDS OF "ENTRY LEVEL" These may be the most affordable 29'ers in our stable, but there's nothing entry-level about the performance of these bikes. We've taken all new frame styling and married it to our proven XC geometry. Best-in-class performance and big hoops doesn't have to mean big bucks, and the Durangos prove it. FRAME DESIGN DETAILS The Durango frame features a sloping top tube that optimizes stand-over clearance while at the same time adding great looks. The oversized down tube and head tube also offer plenty of strength, stiffness, and fork crown clearance. - 6061 aluminum main tubes - SR Suntour XCT 30 HLO 29", coil spring, hydraulic speed lock-out adjust, external preload adjustor - Alex TD26 29" rims, 32H, alloy disc hubs - MicroSHIFT Advent M6195M 9-speed - Sealed cartridge Bottom Bracket - Shimano MT200 hydraulic disc brakes - Jamis XC alloy handlebar and stem - Jamis ATB Sport Saddle

We designed our Earth Cruisers to be kinder, gentler versions of our sport comfort bikes. They're simplified with easy-to-use coaster brake drivetrains without the complications of derailleurs or hand brakes to fiddle around with. In spite of their name, they're not just for riding at the beach. They're for any rider anywhere looking for a simple, lightweight, low-maintenance, good-looking bike they can casually and comfortably pedal around town all day, every day. DIET CRUISER Many cruisers weigh well north of 40 pounds. Not so with the Earth Cruiser. Because nothing gets more uncomfortable faster than having to pedal more weight than necessary, we've pared as many grams from the Earth Cruiser as we could. Starting with the lightweight aluminum frame and a parts pick that's nearly all lightweight alloy parts. The result is a 29-pound Earth Cruiser 1 that's pure joy to pedal. LOOKS GREAT TODAY & TOMORROW Many of the parts specified on our Earth Cruisers are made of aluminum to save weight, but also to help preserve the finish of the bike. Aluminum parts include the seat post, seat clamp, stem, rims, front hub, kickstand and crank arms (EC3 and EC1). We've even specified a silver-plated chain on the EC3 and EC1 that doesn't just look great, it's way more rust-resistant than standard carbon steel chains. COMFORTABLE STEERING Our cruise-control handlebars were designed to promote a comfortable no-weight-on-the-wrists riding position. With just the right sweep and rise, these handlebars meet the rider's hands without requiring a forward bend at the waist, relieving pressure on the back of the neck. Handlebar width has also been carefully calculated so that when steered from left to right it does not contact the rider, unlike many other cruiser-style handlebars. MEMORY FOAM SADDLE Our Earth Cruiser saddles are not just great looking, they're extraordinarily comfortable as well. Though the size and shape is clearly generous, we've also molded a channel into the top of the saddle to relieve sitting pressure and use high-quality memory or polyurethane foam for the supporting mattress. Memory foam was originally developed by NASA and is now used extensively for medical applications. It is much denser than the foams ordinarily used in saddles, which makes it more supportive and more comfortable. SMOOTH ROLLING TIRES Our comfort tires have been designed to roll smoothly on pavement, but offer a large 2.125" footprint so that rides on park paths can be managed securely. The additional benefit of that big footprint is larger air volume in the tire and tube, which results in lower air pressure for a more comfortable ride than tires with smaller volumes and higher air pressures. NO-SLIP PEDALS Our Earth Cruisers pedals offer a thermoplastic elastomer insert on both sides of the pedal surface that keeps shoes and sandals from slipping when soles or pedals get wet. These inserts also make barefoot pedaling comfortable.

Boss Cruiser BC is what we’d call seriously casual— designed to be low maintenance, built for comfort, but with the durability to be ridden every day for years. Sometimes, all you need is one gear and a coaster brake, and that’s just what you get. The Boss Cruiser BC keeps it simple, so you can keep smiling, and a Step-Over frame makes getting on and off a breeze. Laid-back cruiser bars and a double-sprung saddle let you keep your chill all day long, and cushy tires iron out the boardwalk and choppy roads for silky-smooth cruising.

FUN=FITNESS, FITNESS=FUN Musically speaking, Allegro means quick and lively. Which exactly characterizes the spirit of our Allegros: fitness bikes that are lively, quick, and seriously fun to ride. Our Allegros blend the speed and efficiency of a road bike with the heads up riding position many people prefer. LIGHTWEIGHT & PRECISION FEEL When it comes to fitness training and peak performance, nothing is more detrimental to flying fast than carrying more weight than you need to. Which is why every Allegro is built with lightweight triple-butted 6061 aluminum tubing. In fact, our aluminum Allegro frames shed 14 ounces over their steel Coda counterparts. We design comfort into the naturally stiffer ride by specifying large volume 32c tires, using similar geometry as our Codas and then adding a few millimeters to the wheelbase length for just a tad more compliance. - Size Specific Design Triple-butted 6061 aluminum frame with fast back rear triangle - Hi-Ten straight blade unicrown with flat mount disc brake mounts - Alex TD26 double wall disc specific alloy rims - Shimano Rapidfire, 16-speed - Shimano FC-TY501-2 crankset - Shimano Acera RD-M360 rear and Shimano FD-TY710-2 front derailleurs - Tektro HD-M280/281 hydraulic Flat Mount disc brakes - Jamis Touring saddle with SL cover

TOP FIVE THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW - The full-length & full ring-wrap chainguard on Miss Daisy keep clothes & legs cleanly and safely out of the way of the chain. Those attractively painted fenders keep the rain & mud off the bike AND the rider and look cute to boot. - Our soft and comfortable foam grips feature a smooth vinyl cover that is embossed and stitched to match the saddle & decal theme. - Those wide Brooklyn Speedway tires offer a large contact patch for greater stability, with a smooth tread surface for easy rolling, and hold plenty of air volume for a more comfortable ride. - Our pedals offer a non-slip insert that keeps feet and shoes in full contact even when wet for safe & secure pedaling. - Every 16" Miss Daisy offers stabilizing training wheels that assist the young rider in learning how to pedal, steer and balance a bike for the first time. The training wheel support struts attach securely both to the rear hub axle and the frame itself so that the training wheels don't rotate out of a plane with the rear wheel, preventing tips or spills.
