2014 Jamis Dakar XCT 650 Comp

This is the bike that teed it up and kicked it off way back in 2009. After all the nay-saying and “it’s not really exactly between 26 and 29”, the world is now clearly ready (finally) to fully embrace 650B. And there’s no better place to start the group hug than on the rig that believed from the beginning and now has over 5 years of PD and real-world riding and refinement to ensure it IS Best in Class. Expanded in 2014 to include four versions: 2 carbon fiber and 2 aluminum. What are you waiting for? See you at the races.
