Jamis Dakota D29 Pro 29er Hardtail
Product DescriptionWe're big believers in 29ers, and their roll-over-everything, trail-taming momentum. Last year's Dakota D29 bikes were incredible machines, a smart application of cutting-edge carbon technology with big hoops. And we upped the ante for 2011. We literally broke the molds for our big-wheel bikes, retooling for pumped-up, 1-1/8" – 1.5" tapered head tubes. The bigger-diameter steerer adds a lot of rigidity to the control center, and that pays dividends with 29-inch rolling stock, letting you muscle out of ruts and really improving all-around control authority. It takes some weight off as well. We went with 2x10 drivetrains and oversize 185 mm front brake rotors, so you'll have big-range gearing and big-fisted stopping power that's a perfect matchup for those giant treads.

from Naples, Fl. USA Date Reviewed: December 6, 2011 Strengths: Great overall value, good X9 setup, tuned in, bike tracks and rolls very well Weaknesses: Jamis customer service, warranty and support is really poor to say at least. Do not expect any support or courtesy from them past the obvious. Even if they are aware of a major product defect they still make you pay for labor which in my case was more then the defective products value (thats their game). Jamis saved money on main components such as wheels (WTB Speed TCS) which will not hold up for long. Bottom Line: Expand full review >>Duration Product Used: 1 Year Price Paid: $3100.00 Purchased At: A.E Cycles Similar Products Used: Pivot 429, Linskey Pro, Tallboy Bike Setup: X9, NOW Chris King with Stans Flow and DT swiss comp spokes, Thudbuster, 1070 casette, salsa, carbon FSA, etc.
