FeaturesThe Boss Cruiser's lightweight & durable aluminum frame is easier to pedal than steel, and offers corrosion and rust-resistant attributes in coastal salt water conditions. Our sloping double-diamond frame design offers the lightest possible frame weight, with 6 sizes assuring the best possible customer fit for the most comfortable & secure ride. The large diameter single-loop stays with trailing dropout are a Boss signature trademark: they've been part of the Boss design since 1980. The near constant diameter stays look great and offer a longer wheelbase for a more stable & comfortable ride. Alex's Zuma alloy rims are reliably true & durable and are laced on the Boss with 36 stainless steel spokes producing a strong, rust-resistant wheel. The Boss features a near all-alloy parts list -- alloy micro-adjust seat post, alloy stem, alloy seat post clamp, alloy front hub, alloy rims, alloy kickstand -- all of which add value, eliminate rust and reduce weight for an easier to pedal, more comfortable ride. The new generation Hi-Stop coaster brake features a new hub shell tested one by one on the production line for absolute concentricity to assure zero shoe vibration. Our Boss saddle is as plush as it gets -- quilted top, wide body, fully stuffed, double loop springs -- with Male & Female specific saddle lengths & widths. Our Jamis Cruiser bar is the most sensibly designed in the business -- just the right width, sweep & rise, for a perfectly comfortable upright ride that won't accidentally knock you in the ribs during tight radius, slow speed turns (like in a driveway or parking lot). The rubber-like inserts on the pedals are actually slip-resistant, offering some shock-absorption as well, for a safer, more secure ride. You can even ride barefoot comfortably!
