    We never set out to be big. We just wanted to make some great

    bikes. For 30 years, weve concentrated on doing what we do

    bestdesigning and building the kinds of bikes we want to ride.

    The ones we love to ride.

    Turns out, lots of people wanted the same things we didreal-

    world performance, the kinds of bikes that turn a good day of riding

    into a great day, period. A few happy Jamis riders became a few more

    happy Jamis riders and after 30 seasons weve quietly become big,

    a nameplate that gets noticed in the pack and out on the trail.

    And we did it by building the very best bikes, and letting them

    speak for us where it countsin the woods, on the road, on dirt

    jumps and bike paths and everywhere else you might spin a wheel

    for fun.

    We got noticed because were cyclists. Were not just product guys,

    were not just number-crunching accountants and engineers.

    Were riders. Riders who happen to be product managers,

    engineers and designers. Were the kids who got turned loose in

    the toy store, carte blanche. This is what we love and were lucky

    we get to share it, spreading the stoke two wheels at a time.

    Were proud of our hard work, the time and sweat weve invested

    in technologies like our SST size-specific tubing that guarantee the

    same perfect ride experience whether you ride a giant-size frame

    or an extra-petite one; our award-winning mp3 multi-link rear

    suspension; the huge r&d investment weve made in our carbon

    technology; our proprietary saddles and custom handlebar

    bends; the time and care we put into designing kids bikes.

    But its much more than the technology that mattersits the

    whole machine. Its performance. Its value. Its how our bikes fit

    into the big, real-world picture. And not just in one category.

    While some manufacturers are known as

    a road brand, or a mountain brand, or a triathlon brand,

    weve earned accolades for all bikes, from all over. Bicycling

    magazine loves us. Were practically a fixture in Outside.

    The mountain bike magazinesall of themjust cant seem to

    get enough of our bikes. And the tri magazines have put us in the

    spotlight over and over. Google Jamis + any bike category you

    want, and youll be avalanched by gushing praise from ordinary

    cyclists like you, from seasoned vets to weekend riders whove just

    rediscovered cycling.

    Weve become a big name the hard way, earning it year by year, one

    bike at a time. And thats what put us on the map, as weve racked

    up awards in every bike segment you can imaginemountain

    bike of the year honors, editors choice awards in road, comfort

    and mountain bike categories. Over multiple years, in both cycling

    enthusiast press and mainstream media. And in competition all

    over the globe.

    Weve earned Bicycling magazines coveted Editors Choice award

    for best road bike and best mountain bike five times, with twice as

    many nominations. Weve been Bike of the Year in Mountain Biking

    magazine a half-dozen times. We make Outsidemagazines annual

    Buyers Guidewhere they recommend just 5 or 6 bikes each year

    to their readers so many times weve lost count. Weve been listed

    as a Sport Comfort #1 and #2 Best Buy in a world-famous consumer

    publication (who wont let their name be usedbut its lab-coated

    staff is known for its exhaustive testing protocols). And its not just

    our hi-tech flagship bikes that garner all the medals, or the opinions

    of expert cyclists that are making these calls, either. Our bikes are so

    good its obvious to anyoneour everyday machines have even

    been featured in AARP magazine as a recommended buy. And it aint

    because were spending more ad dollars than anyone elsewere

    just cranking out bikes that are seriously that good.

    Our road bikes continue to be top of the heap, whether theyre

    purebred racers or casual pavement cruisers. Last years Xenith Pro

    walked away with best enthusiast road bike honors in Bicycling

    magazines annual Editors Choice awards (and this years version is

    even betterstiffer, lighter, and just plain faster), and the flagship

    Xenith SL is being ridden to victory on the USA pro peloton again

    and again by the women and men of Colavita/Sutter Home/Cooking

    Light.

    Our flat-handlebar road bikes are the best thing going for fitness rides

    and cross-town commutes. And our fixed-gear bikes are legends in

    the urban riding community, where speed and soul reign supreme.

    In the dirt, our proven mp3 multi-link rear suspension continues to

    set the standard for refinement and performance. Whether its in the

    big-air world of George Ryan, the smash-and-bang downhill arena of

    Tommy T and Kathy Pruitt, or the cross country racing world of Kenny

    Burt, our full-suspension bikes deliver the goods. And deliver them

    first, with the sort of suppleness that soaks up big hits, sma

    and keeps those tires firmly planted whether youre carving

    bend or scrambling for traction.

    Our hardtails are legendary, with the most dialed-in, tuned

    geometry on the planet. Whether your jones is lightweight a

    or supple-yet-efficient Dragon steel; big air or the flow of a g

    long-travel forks or minimalist simplicity, our hardtails are

    thing. These bikes track and steer with conviction, with a

    hook-up that maximizes traction, and with those perfect pro

    that fit like your body as though it was custom-made for it.

    Even our childrens bikes are standouts. We make them

    tough, and easy to ride. And we pack them with more value

    other bikes we build, because we know the people riding

    the most important people in your world.

    And thats what it really boils down to: Your world. Its where

    Its whereyoulive. Its where you get to choose who you wa

    the type of rider you are. The type of cyclist you aspire to b

    who we had in mind when we first set pen to paper 30 years

    thats why were thrilled to be bigit means were not alone, t

    making cyclists happy. Being big lets us pay back into this

    sport with advocacy programs, sponsorship of premium rid

    like Diablo Mountain Bike Park, inspiring pros like the Nort

    Jordie Lunn or Colvitas Tina Pic, Alison Powers, Alejandro Bo

    Anthony Colby, as well as development squads like G.S. Men

    Sakonnets U25 racing team.

    No, we never set out to be big. We just wanted to build the v

    bikes we could, bikes wed love to ride. Turns out, they migh

    the very best bikes on the planet. And theres one built for y

    Carine Joannou, President and CEO, took overthe reins of the company her father started

    in 1937 nearly 30 years ago. The rest of ushave been rowing as hard as we can for

    this captain who clearly possesses theentrepreneurial guts, determination,vision and charisma it takes to be a

    winner year after year in todays tough

    business environment.

    Greg Webber, VP of Product Development,

    has been with Jamis since the day ourfirst Earth Cruiser debuted 30 yearsago, and has headed up the

    product team since 1987. Hispassion for cycling and delivering

    product that makes people ofall ages, abilities and aspirationswant to get out and ride is what

    The trail is not someplace you go. Its where to be.

    Its where you write your own rules, where you define

    whats possible, whats rideable.

    Of course, whats rideable means different things to

    different people. For vert and dirt-jumping phenoms Jordie

    Lunn and George Ryan, whats rideable is almost certain

    death for most mortals. But if they believe in Jamis enough

    to ride it, thrash and tune new designs to help grow the

    sport and help give us an edge, well, we must be onto

    something.

    That something is a lineup of full-suspension wonder bikes

    thats our best crop yet. Every 2009 Jamis has been retuned,

    reworked or redesigned, from our serious trail haulers like

    the XCT and race-ready Dakar XCR to thrill machines like

    the downhilling Dakar BAM and all-mountain Dakar XAM,

    and big-air bikes like Parker.

    Weve been at the full-suspension game as long as anybody

    and one of the things weve learned is that it takes more

    than a great suspension design--it takes superior execution.

    And nobody does that better than us. Thats why every

    Jamis dualie starts with some version of our proven multi-

    link design, with a near-vertical axle path, and why we work

    to reduce the leverage ratio in every one of our designs

    to give you the smoothest-possible action and improved

    shock longevity.

    Its why almost every bike uses 10mm shock-mo

    hardware, for that extra little bit of lateral stiffn

    longer life. Its why we agonize over fork selection

    bike works as a whole--much more than the mere

    its hyper-engineered parts.

    Of course, we didnt happen on any of this by a

    We got here with a lot of help. We, in this c

    product development team thats much more th

    supremely talented engineer-designers. Its ou

    team of product tester/thrashers, our sponsor

    Jamis pros, and enthusiasts like you, who are as o

    about the ride as we are.

    And we got here by riding as much as possible, w

    possible. Which is why were thrilled to have Jam

    official bike of Diablo Mountain Bike Park--free pas

    plus an excuse for weekday product testing--yah

    But what matters most is how our bikes perfor

    woods, on real trails. Its the singing buzz thro

    handlebar, that thrilling surge when you totally la

    pedals, the satisfying smush when the suspension

    a really big hit.

    Its about making a difference in how you ride.

    thats the only ride that matters.

    en we introduced the carbon fiber XCR

    nk and chainstays were still undergoing

    ng. So these frames went to market with

    proven alloy bell crank and chainstays

    m our Dakar XCR Expert. This year, the full

    bon XCR dream comes true. Not only do we

    d 280 grams in frame weight, but the ride

    lity is simply awesome. When standing up

    imb or sprint, the lateral stiffness of the

    w stays, bell crank and 10mm hardware we

    rowed from our big hit bikes is immediatelyarent: this bike just GOES.

    DAKAR XCR SERIES. LIGHTER. FASTER. BETTER.Our Dakar XCR series was already known for crisp handling with supple suspension action thats stable and

    ultra-responsive under power. But we went back to the CAD screen and proto room, tweaking it hard to squeeze

    just a little bit more from whats already one of the best designs av ailable.

    When it comes to covering open ground, nothing gobbles up more trail with more efficiency faster. Use the mp3

    multi-link rear suspensions 100 mm of travel to spare your body on that fast trail ride. Or give it your all a nd leverage

    that solid pedal platform to get to the finish line first.

    These are bikes built for speed and control, with race-tuned geometry that gives plenty of front tire hook-up when

    youre carving deep into a corner, and lots of back-end bite when youre surging over a climb.

    Race it. Own it. On a Dakar XCR.

    DAKAR XCT 2

    DAKAR XCT 1

    20mm thru-axle front hubs common on

    and FR bikes are phenomenally stiff, for

    eased steering precision and control, and

    y are absolutely secure. But they are also

    vy, so its diffi cult to consider them for use

    ghter weight, mid-travel bikes. Thankfully,

    and Shimano have introduced a new,

    ter thru-axle standard aimed at the all-

    untain category. This new design uses t he

    ustry standard 100mm over-locknut front

    with a 15mm diameter thru-axle. It is 15%

    er torsionally and 25% stiffer in transversear than the standard 9mm/QR. Its light, it s

    ng, its secure and it offers tool-less release.

    We love the ride of our XCRs and XAMs. But blending the attributes of both in one design has created the perfect all-day trail bike: the 5

    travel XCT. Thanks to our fully-active mp3 design, this bike maintains small bump compliance while climbing: a benefit youll appreciate

    when the terrain wants to steal whatever momentum and traction you have going for you on that ascent. But its on the descents where

    youll discover just how aggressively this bike likes to be ridden. The shock ramps up perfectly, keeping the rear wheel stuck to the ground

    without blowing through its travel. And with our slack head angle offering lots of high-speed stability, this bike simply begs for more.

    DAKAR XCT SERIES. ALL NEW, TRAIL READY.Some days, you want to go cross-country, hard. And other times, you want to just follow the fall line, fast. Its tough,

    deciding between two kinds of ride. Now you dont have to.

    The all-new XCT splits the difference between pure cross-country per formance and aggressive trail riding. Its light

    and fast, with the stable pedal platform of our proven mp3 susp ension so it climbs like an XC racer. But its also plush

    and tough, so you can use all 5 inches of suspension travel and plunge down descents like a Dakar XAM.

    Using XCR frame tubing keeps the heft down, with slightly relaxed angles and a longer wheelbase to add more

    high-speed stability without taking too much of an edge off the XCRs crisp handling skills. Throw-in at least 130

    mm of fork travel, plus powerful hydraulic discs and aggressive tread and you have everything you need to stay in

    control no matter where you pedal.

    Its a big world. Now you can ride all of it.

    DAKAR XAM IDAKAR XAM II

    DAKAR XAM. ULTIMATE TRAIL-TAMER.From the beginning, the Dakar XAM earned a rep as an incredibly plush, efficient trail bike. This year, we reworked

    it from head tube to rear dropout, making it the best-handling/best-pedaling 6-inch travel all-mountain bike to

    ever set tread on dirt.

    We finessed and overhauled everything we could on XAM for no-excuses performance. The XAMs mp3 rear

    suspension gets a new one-piece bell crank, new pivot hardware, new seatstays and dropouts for more stiffness

    at the back end, and a 2.63:1 shock leverage ratio that improves shock life and offers more progressive control.

    Up front theres 20mm of stiff thru-axle strength to keep you firmly planted and pointed where you want to go no

    matter how aggressive the conditions.

    For early adopters, weve speced the revolutionary TruVativ Hammerschmidt crank on the XAM II, which gives you

    incredible chainring clearance over logs and bumps and flawless, slam-it-down-anytime (pedaling-or-not) front

    shifting without a derailleur or extra chainring.

    This IS the brave new world of trail riding. Flow on a XAM and know.

    DAKAR BAM IDAKAR BAM II

    DAKAR BAM. OWN THE MOUNTAIN.Where others see nothing but trouble, you see nothing but fun. If steep chutes, rock gardens, slickrock slabs and

    big drops are what you live for, BAM is your bike.

    We took the proven 7-inch mp3 rear suspension from last years BAM, pumped it up to 8 inches of terrain-swal-

    lowing travel so itll take the drops you used to bail on. Its active and plush thanks to a 2.67:1 leverage ratio that

    squeezes the most out Foxs DHX shock, with minimal pedal or brake feedback, keeping you in complete control.

    We gave BAM downhill-inspired angles for descending confidence, and a lengthy top tube that lets you breathe

    on the ascents as you make the most of the mp3 suspensions stable pedal platform. A new unified bell crank and

    CNCed pivot hardware keeps things laterally stiff and torsionally tight so you can power out of one switchback

    into the next.

    When gravity is your fuel and adrenaline is your high, BAM is the bike you want to be on.

    If you havent heard yet, were very happy to announce (on

    our 30th birthday!) that our BAM II will be the Offi cial Bike

    of Americas premier mountain bike park -- Diablo Freeride

    Park -- for 2009 and 2010. Diablo is only an hour or so from

    our offi ces, and weve been taking advantage of their insane

    network of jump lines, ramps, wall rides and gnarly DH trails

    for a few years now to bang up product and initiate new

    offi ce staff. So it only made sense that we should partner up

    and make something happen. Our bikes can only get better

    because of it. And Diablo riders will now have custom BAMs

    to bomb down the Road to Nowhere.

    PARKER. THE NEW STANDARD.Parker was the sleeper hit of 2008, launched as a gate-racing bike, something you could rail in weekend dual

    slalom, then take to the skate park or the dirt jumps. Turns out it was just what a lot of aggressive riders wanted--

    we couldnt make enough of em.

    This year, we made it an even better, stronger jumper with beefier chainstays for strength and lower st andover

    for more tail-whipping action. We boosted lateral stiffness with stout dropouts, a wider top tube pivot and new

    CNCed pivot hardware. Youll feel every accelerating bit of it when pumping the pedals through transitions and

    over climbs.

    Parker II offers a single chainring drivetrain set-up, perfect for race day or slopestyle park riding. Parker I gets a

    double with e-13 SuperCharger bash guard to go anywhere, do anything. Both Parkers get adjustable-travel Rock

    Shox forks, so you can dial them down for racing the gates, then turn them loose for freeride stunting when you

    shed the number plate.

    Riders. Thats who we are. Thats who we build for.

    And thats why this years crop of Jamis hardtails is the

    best its ever been.

    A hardtail is a special kind of bike, and in a world thats

    dominated by full suspension machines it takes a special

    kind of rider to appreciate the near-primal joy and refinement

    hardtails embody. There are no frills, no gimmicks. Just pure,

    near-perfect power transfer and trail-riding thats strippedto its essence.

    Our hardtail geometry is legendary, hitting that magically

    sweet balance of ride comfort, handling assertiveness and

    climbing traction. Its putting you in just the right place over

    the cranks so you can get the power down when you need

    to go up, so you can seriously drive that front wheel through

    the bends, so you have the leverage you need to stand on

    those pedals and just go.

    While the other guys seem content to let their hardtail

    development grind to a halt, weve kept at it, chipping our

    way ever-closer to hardtail nirvana. And weve done it by

    listening to our riders, listening to you.

    Our team riders wanted a little more handling response

    from the Komodo--we tightened up the geometry just a tad

    and squeezed a few grams from the frame while doing it.

    Dirt-jumping phenoms Jordie Lunn and George Ryan

    wanted more standover for the Kromo -- we cooked up

    a new way to secure the seat post and put the seat clamp

    under the top tube so they could slam the saddle further

    down and fly even farther.

    Everyone wants lighter weight -- we scraped and shaved

    and squeezed it from every place we could, even going

    with lighter stay bracing for the Dragon 29er.

    The only thing we could not do was settle for what we had.

    Which, by all accounts, were the best hardtails on the trail.

    Just take a look at all the 5-star ratings that pop up when

    you punch Jamis Dragon or Jamis Dakota into Google.

    These arent paid endorsements, but real-world opinions

    from riders like you, guys whove just tried hardtails for the

    first time after years of riding dual suspension, die-hard

    racers, people whove hammered and abused and loved

    their Jamis hardtail for more than a decade.

    For newer riders, a dialed-in hardtail lik e our Durango or Trail

    series makes tons of sense--you get great handling and trail

    manners, and honestly off-road-capable components that

    wont grenade the first time you hit the dirt. For seasoned

    riders, a high-end Dragon or Dakota gets you the most

    tuned, tweaked, refined chassis on the planet.

    KOMODO II

    KOMODO I

    this photo of a seat clamp below the

    mo seat tube/top tube/seatstay juncture

    ot the Photoshop CS3 work of some Jamis

    director gone mad. Nope, we designed the

    g that way so Jordie and George could

    m their saddle as low as possible for some

    ponsibly insane flight patterns of theirs.

    ll let them fly, thats their job. Its ours to

    ke sure when they come in for a landing,

    yve got some very secure gear. They can

    nt on Kromo.

    The high flying members of Team Jamis wanted more flick-ability for the 09 Komodo. After an all-night conference with Jordie defining

    flick-ability, our engineers set to work carving some mass out of the rear triangle without sacrificing strength. That meant smaller/lighter

    seatstays, dropouts and chainstay yoke. Then they hacked the length of the chainstays by 15mm, further reducing rear triangle weight,

    but more importantly, tucking that rear wheel in closer to the seat tube for greater, you guessed it, flick-ability. The challenge was to

    make sure there was enough room to run 2.4 tires. Yup, there is.

    GRAVITY HARDTAILS. AIR FORCE.These bikes are built to fly, our own two-wheeled air force. Agility. Flickability. Durability. Thats what our pros wanted

    more of from the Komodo. And thats what we gave them, carving material from the stout rear triangle, shaving

    a full 15mm off the chainstay length, tucking that rear wheel in tight for faster response on the ground and greater

    control in the air.

    The Kromo is a big favorite for Jordie Lunn and George Ryan, guys who spend more time catching a ir than

    a skydiving convention. They wanted more standover and a lower saddle position and we gave it to them with an

    integrated seat clamp thats under the top tube. We added some real-world versatility by specing a full-size cassette

    freehub and throwing in a derailleur hanger so you can bolt on a shifter, derailleur and 9-speed cassette for some

    trail riding when the mood hits.

    These are bikes that you can ride to the local jump spot, huck em hard, punish them, and just know youll be riding

    them home at the end of the day.

    DRAGONCOMPDRAGON PRO

    DRAGON. STEEL REIGNS SUPREME.For some mountain bikers, the steel hardtail is the pinnacle of bicycle design. Nothings more responsive. Nothing

    matches its ability to convert pedaling motion into forward motion. And with the right rider, and the right skills, its

    the fastest thing on the trail.

    For those riders--and you know who you are--the Jamis Dragon is a legend. Its TIG-welded Reynolds 853 steel,

    bound in our signature geometry for trail-tracking handling, squirt-over-crests power transfer, and that amazingly

    resilient ride that makes you just want to keep on riding.

    With 100 mm of fork travel you can lock out at a whim, Shimanos bulletproof 27-speed drivetrain and hydraulic

    discs that let you stop as hard and fast as traction will allow, theres nothing to hold you back except for your own

    skills and daring.

    29ERS. BIG WHEELS DIE HARD.Its a fact--bigger wheels roll easier over stuff. Stuff like rocks, stutter bumps, mud and sand. In other words,

    they roll easier--and faster--over the trails you ride.

    If youre a big, tall rider youll definitely benefit from a 29er. The frame will fit you better, and youll reap the

    same benefits everyone else does from that larger tire contact patch and its stronger interface with the terrain.

    Youll like the fact that big hoops are harder to pinch-flat. And youll dig the fact that we have a full brace of

    29ers to choose from.

    For die-hard ferrous tube fans theres the Reynolds 853 steel Dragon 29. Riders looking to hone their technical

    skills on a single-speed will love the Dragon Ones supple steel chassis and Rock Shox Tora Race fork with PopLock

    remote lockout. And if you want an aluminum chassis to help offset the weight gain of those big wheels, theres

    the up-spec Dakota 29 or the more price-accessible, new for 09 Durango 29.

    Go big, on a Jamis 29er.

    s new BB30 bottom bracket and crankset

    em makes perfect sense, especially for

    untain bikes. Its lighter than current

    rnal-type BB systems since the bearings

    pressed directly into the frame, eliminating

    cups, and stiffer too, thanks to the massive

    mm diameter aluminum spindle. Bearing

    s increased due to the larger diameter

    hell and the fact that the bearings are

    k inside the shell, well protected from the

    ments. Dakota Elite comes speced with a

    mplete BB30 set-up. Dakota Comp offers a0 shell with an adaptor for the standard

    aded Shimano crankset, so when youre

    dy to drop weight and increase stiffness by

    rading to BB30, your bike is ready to go.

    DAKOTA. PERFORMANCE PUREBRED.The Dakota enjoys a worldwide rep for being quick and fast thanks to its lightweight, triple-butted Kinesis Superlight

    tubing, carbon fiber monostay (on the Elite and Comp) and our signature tuned geometry. We made this years

    models even better with FSAs oversize BB30 integrated crankset thats lighter, more durable, and improves your

    effi ciency with increased stiffness.

    We complete the package with one of the best component specs in the industry. From the high-end Dakota Elite to

    the entry-friendly Dakota Sport, all models offer lockout for effi cient climbing, hydraulic disc brakes for powerful and

    controlled braking in all conditions and full Shimano drivetrains with Deore XT Shadow rear derailleur for flawless

    shifting. And with Dakota Comp Femme, we dialed frame geometry for the female physique, with appropriately

    sized and shaped stem, saddle and crank.

    Dakota. Its seriously fast, without being serious about it.

    DURANGO. SMOOTH OPERATORS.There are affordable mountain bikes. And there are trail-worthy mountain bikes. The Durango actually pulls off the

    rare trick of existing in both categories, and does it well.

    This years Durangos get a sli ghtly reworked frame that sheds a few ounces, but keep s the smart rear tria ngle we

    re-designed last year with ample tire clearance when the world goes muddy.

    And we upped the ante with the parts mix, outfitting the Durango 1 with a 100-mm RST fork with lockout,

    24 Shimano gears and disc brakes. The 2 steps it up with a 27-speed Shimano drivetrain, hydraulic discs and RSTs

    Omega magnesium slider fork. And not to be outdone, the 3 levels up with a Marzocchi 22 fork and Shimanos

    awesome Deore XT Shadow rear derailleur.

    The parts are the bait, but the real meat of the Durango is the way it just flows, tracking smoothly and predictably.

    Thats 30 years of hard-won experience, all going to work for you.

    footed confidence, but compared to our purebred performers we put the handlebar closer for a little more comfort

    and control, helping you build confidence with experience. And the XR gets something unheard of these days--a

    steel frame, for a subtly smoother ride.

    You get proven performance with the Trail series, and we drew on our equipment-savvy experts so every Trail gives

    you the most bang for your buck, for more reliable, long-term performance.

    Trail wont just get you started. Itll go the distance.

    To lead in the peloton, youve gotta have respect.

    Nobody gives it away. You cannot take it by force. All you

    can do is earn it (hey, even Eddy Merckx had to pay his dues).

    But then comes the day when you have arrived, when

    youre no longer pack fodder, but a leader. Someone in the

    know. A rider who matters.

    This is our breakout year. Were talking serious momentum

    here. Last years Xenith Pro snatched Bicyclingmagazines

    Editors Choice award as the best enthusiast road raceravailable. We beat everyone, from old school Euro brands

    to American upstarts. And this years bike got even better--

    lighter, stiffer, and seriously faster.

    Were talking about the Colavita national and regional teams

    racing to victory on Jamis bikes. G.S. Mengoni and Sakonnet,

    too. Teams with serious credibility that can have the pick of

    the litter when it comes to equipment.

    These are wicked-fast race machines. Serious as a heart

    attack. Quicker than a caffeinated cheetah. With race-tuned

    geometry and handling so crisp and sure you can sling

    into corners and hear the tires sizzle, screaming for mercy.

    And yet theyre so hands-off stable its no trouble digging

    around in the bottom of a feed zone musette for that lost

    energy bar.

    Our SST size-specific tubing system sets the ride standard

    for the industry. Whether you ride a monstrously big

    frame or a tiny petite model, a Jamis roadie ri

    perfection itself, thanks to tubing diameters (a

    carbon models, fiber orientation and lay-up sch

    that vary with frame size to provide just enough

    give for comfort, with loads of torsional rigi

    stand-up climbs and some serious pop and energ

    for the sprint.

    A Jamis road bike plays to your strengths whethe

    short-run sprinter, a climbing specialist or a long-

    trialist. If road racing is your game, you wont find

    better for all-around speed than our Xenith series

    For racing the clock, theres our technology-lade

    T-series -- campaigned by the triathletes of Fu

    Endurance, and trickling its technology down

    rest of our TT lineup. For performance riding, th

    insanely popular Ventura line and for versatility, th

    touring series. And lets not forget our more eso

    models, the hugely popular Sputnik fixie, its br

    Beatnik sibling and the velodrome-ready Sonik-

    cyclocrossing fun that comes with our Supern

    Nova Pro.

    In the past couple of years, weve gone from

    just another high-tech brand to becoming th

    Were on top of the gear, and the pack is taking

    Being out front will do that.

    FSAs new BB30 bottom bracket and crankset system makes perfect sense. Its lighter than current external-type BB systems because the

    bearings are pressed directly into the frame, eliminating the cups. The massive 30mm diameter spindle not only significantly increases

    frame stiffness, it also reduces complete bike weight because it is now made of aluminum. Bearing life is increased because of the larger

    diameter BB shell and Q-factor, too, has been improved (reduced) because the bearings are back inside the shell.

    XENITH SERIES. TAKING THE LEAD.All the technology in the world, the fancy ads, the awardsthey dont mean squat once the gun goes off.

    Being first across the linethats all that matters. Thats what these Xeniths are all about.

    Colavitas pros love their Xeniths. The thing is, words gotten around about how light, stiff and responsive their bikes

    are, and the rest of the peloton looks at their Xeniths like an unfair advantage. In the pros, there are two types of

    bikesthe ones sponsors make you ride and the ones you want to ride. Like the Xenith SL or Team.

    This isnt to say were not proud of our awards. We are. Last years Xenith Pro snatched a Bicycling magazineEditors

    Choice award for best enthusiast road bike, heady praise indeed (and that was last years model, which the 09

    seriously puts to shame). Weve garnered rave reviews and praise everywhere from blogs to magazines.

    But what really counts is getting there first. Thats Xenith.

    how does a sub-900 gram frame win as

    sistently and perform as reliably at the highest

    l of competition as our Xenith frame did in 08?

    oval shaped top and down tubes keep torsional

    lateral stiffness high. Asymmetrical chainstays,

    h the drive side 10% larger than the non-drive

    , yields 30% more lateral stiffness to offset

    etrain torque. Seatstays run full length from

    pout to seat tube increasing lateral stiffness while

    ring greater vertical compliance than standard,

    er-to-build, large diameter monostays. Plus a

    prietary lay-up that blends the highest strengthhighest modulus carbon fibers to deliver a

    arkably smooth-but-stiff and incredibly light ride.

    XENITH COMP

    losive out-of-the-saddle/in-the-drops

    nting puts tremendous stress on the front

    of a bike. Increasing lower head tube and

    crown mass by 33% to 1.5 significantly

    eases front end stiffness for superior

    dling and steering precision. But this isnt

    only benefit of this new design for the

    ith series. By tapering the fork steerer from

    standard 1.125 to the massive 1.5 and

    mmensurately increasing the crown mass,

    re now able to manufacture a completely

    ow fork, from top of steerer to dropout.mpaction integrity throughout is fully

    mized, yielding a lighter, stronger fork.

    XENITH RACE

    XENITH. BUILT FOR SPEED.Xenith Race and Xenith Comp/Comp Femme share the same carbon monocoque construction technology as

    the SL and Team for that same road-racing soul that prizes crisp handling, a sprinters explosive response and the

    ability to make asphalt hum. Whether youre leveraging the Race and Comps incredible torsional stiffness to steal

    the sprint, dropping into a sleek aero tuck on the descent, or just riding tempo on the flat, youll be amazed at just

    how much the Xenith gives back. The faster you go, the faster it goes.

    Weve kitted them out with seriously light, absolutely strong, high bang-for-the-buck parts like Easton handlebars

    and stems, Selle San Marco saddles, Shimano wheels and drivetrains and narrow Q-factor, super-stiff BB30 cranks

    from FSA.

    Whatever your pick -- Race, Comp or Comp Femme -- it will absolutely make you a better rider, with more tactile

    feedback, better handling, and a slicker, smoother ride than you could possibly imagine.

    Ride a Xenith, and realize your speed potential.

    Our four Xenith Comp Femme frames share a few things in common with the mens Xenith Comp frames. Chainstay length, BB height

    and head tube length are all the same for each equivalent size. And both feature size specific tubing (SST) with the 44, 48 and 51cm

    femme frames being 10% smaller in diameter than on the 54 and 56cm frames. But the similarities end there. On the Comp Femme frame,

    head tube angles are shallower by a degree or so; seat tube angles are steeper by one to two degrees; top tube lengths are shorter by

    10 15mm, and fork rakes are longer by 7mm. These are differences that make a difference: the Comp Femme will fit you like a glove.

    re are so many theories on rider positioning:

    ward, rearward, in between. We dont choose

    you. With our two-position seat post design,

    offer one of the widest ranges of seat position

    ustability in the industry to let you decide

    at works best for you. The aero-profile carbon

    t mast smoothes air flow, reduces weight,

    limits road buzz from taking a toll on your

    kside. Ride TT or ride Tri: this post redefines

    ti-sport.

    The results from our first tests of the Xenith T2 at the

    San Diego Low Speed Wind Tunnel were mind blowing.

    Not only were we as aerodynamic as the industrys

    previous most-aero bike at many yawl angles, we blew

    them away straight on. One of the reasons had to be

    that WindShield fork. To prove the point, we took it off

    the T2 and attached the other fork with brake caliper in

    front. The results befuddled the SDLSWT engineers: a 10%

    increase in drag! They insisted the test be run again, no

    extra cost, perhaps there had been a calibration mistake.

    Second test, the results were the same. Its offi cial: our

    WindShield fork offers a 10% aerodynamic advantage.

    That translates as a seven watt power increase.

    When was the last time you could stop at a bicycle

    retailer and pick-up seven watts of additional power?
