Overview
About this bike
Full suspension opens up a whole new world of speed and control off-road. Modernized with 27.5-inch hoops, the Dakar A2 is built on the frame platform that’s won Jamis numerous industry accolades and Bike of the Year awards. It's perfect for the experienced rider looking for full-suspension or for new riders looking for a head start in performance. An X-Fusion RC32 120mm fork and X-Fusion O2 shock provide controlled bump absorption, while Shimano hydraulic disc brakes ensure safe speeds on hairy descents. You also get reliable simplicity from the Shimano 1x10 drivetrain, and the wide and stiff Race Face handlebar and stem combo wrap up this value-packed singletrack machine.
