Jamis Quest review (kind of)

[farrellcollie]

I have a new jamis quest wsd 2006. I just got it on Thursday and have been riding it 10-20 miles a day and so far it is great fun. It does not feel as buzzy on the road like my scott (I am guessing that is the steel part), and so far I have not had much wrist/elbow pain from riding it - I have the handlebars set up slightly higher than saddle. I also like that the quest has the ability to add a regular rack to it if I want to use it as my commute bike. I have spd pedals on it and my b17.

I also have a scott contessa speedster 2005 (or 2006 can't remember - I got it last early spring). I have never been able to get the fit on the scott to feel comfortable to me after the first few miles- and I have a bad right wrist and elbow that would start to ache at 5 or so miles and by the end of a longer ride, my wrist would just throb for hours - However the scott is la little lighter and it feels quicker - but I find the ride harsher on the road than the quest.

My big dilemma now is whether to sell the scott or take it to the shop known for fitting here in town (not the one I bought it from) and give fit one more try.
