2013 Jamis Hardtails 650b

2013 Jamis Hardtails 650b
We’ll admit it. Going against the flow is almost a standard at Jamis. Take our Dragon. When steel had fallen out of favor as a material of choice for high-end mountain bike frames fifteen to twenty years ago, we kept right on welding Tange Prestige and Reynolds 853. We weren’t going to pack up the performance and quality of the Dragon simply because ferrous tubes were no longer fashionable. It was a commitment to the ride, not the rule of the day.

And we’re at it again with 650B. Committed. The performance attributes and the versatility of the 650B wheel size are just too good to ignore for the sake of standards. And what better platform to bolt a set of ‘tweener wheels to than a Dragon? A new immediate sell-out after it’s introduction last year, the 2013 version – with American Classic tubeless wheels, Crank Brothers cockpit and Schwalbe Racing Ralph rubber – is sure to repeat.
