Jamis DAKAR BAM (2012)

Where others see impossibility, you see a line. Where they see trouble, you see fun. The mountain bike park proven 8” travel BAM is like you, a bike that just won’t take no for an answer.

The big-hit playbook gets rewritten every year, and so does BAM. We continue to tweak the chassis re-tooled in 2010 with modified welding techniques, thicker butting, and radiused gussets so we can flow and absorb big-hit stresses throughout the frame. The pumped-up, hydroformed down tube with integrated bell crank pivot gives BAM incredible torsional rigidity. Something you’ll appreciate as you bang through rock gardens and over obstacles that would make other bikes literally squirm.
