    Jamis Bikes

    Can anyone tell me about this particular line of bikes? How do they compare quality wise to Lemond, Trek, Felt, Cannondale, etc? I'm in the process of shopping for a new road bike and am curious about this line.

    Jamis is a good company. They have a full line of bikes, from entry level to high high end. This year, their new high end bikes are really really nice. I have a co-worker who has an entry level one that he uses for fun, and he really likes it. I also have a teammate who has a Jamis TT bike which is pretty nice.

    All around, I feel that Jamis is pretty similiar to Felt- the entry level bikes are good for the money but nothing special, but the high end bikes are pretty sweet.

    Jamis Aurora is a nicely thought out and nicely priced steel touring bike, from what I can see.

    Hi, Mak

    Jamis makes a very good bike known for being very well spec'd for the price. Definitely try them out when you do your other test rides and compare. I think you'll find that they are really comparable and maybe even better in their components for the price point....

    Enjoy finding your new bike!

    I second what everyone else has said. They're good bikes and well spec'd for the money. I have a Jamis Dakar FS mtn bike. My SO has a Quest road bike and a hardtail mtn bike. They are all nice bikes.
