2012 Jamis Dragon 650B Built for serious trail riding enthusiasts. Last year Jamis introduced the first 650B Mountain Bike Prototype. The size was measured somewhere between a 29er and a 26”. Riders Loved it! It was a hit amongst serious trail riders. Major benefits included quicker, nimbler handling compared to 29er setups, also the bigger wheels meant better climbing compared to 26” wheels, not to mention faster speeds. The Dragon features a brand new 650B Reynolds steel air-hardened frame. It has Reinforced head tube collars, double-butted cromo stays all around. The frame’s stiff, totally responsive, and it has absolutely no flex. Perfect for trail riding! And the White Brothers 650B Suspension Fork is awesome on this bike! 120mm travel, Fully adjustable Aura damping, compression, rebound and threshold adjustors with lightweight magnesium lowers. It Rolls on American Classic’s New 650B Cross-Country disc wheelset. Laced on American Classic’s top of the line AC225 hubs. The 15mm thru-axle up front is a nice touch. It features the trail specific Shimano SLX component group, with Avid Elixir3 hydraulic disc brakes. Other components include the FSA’s Orbit Headset, WTB’s Silvarado Saddle, Syncros Seatpost, Handlebar and Stem. WOW! The ride is Amazing! There’s definitely a noticeable increase in speed compared to 26” models. And The Torque Response is outstanding! It’s unlike any setup on the market right now. Jamis really hit the nail on the head with this one! 650B FTW! The 650B is a totally new concept, it’s pretty expensive.Hopefully in the next year or so we’ll see lower prices.
