Jamis Parker 1.0 Bike 2008



There are so many options to choose from when selecting a full suspension bike. You know you want a bike that is lightweight, pedals efficiently but also want the ability to do much more. The Jamis Parker is the perfect blend of XC performance with an array of trail capabilities. The frame is constructed using lightweight 7005 aluminum tubing, cartridge bearing pivots and the mp3 platform suspension design. Up front the Rock Shox Recon with u-turn adjustable travel (85-130mm) has plenty of external adjustments to customize the feel. Rear suspension duties are handled by a air adjustable Rock Shox Bar 2.1 shock. Compnents include hydraluic disc brakes, a Shimano drivetrain, and an Easton stem and handlebar. All of this keeps the ride smooth, fast and reliable.

"Moab was great last weekend I road my Parker because I didn't have room to take all my bikes and thought this would be the best bike for everything, it was a blast to ride XC on it. It was a great handling machine hopping up rocks and riding tight technical trails with ease."

Jamis have really stepped it up in the freeride and dirt jump department for 2008. My son and I had the chance to extensively test the Kromo and Parker II at the demo day last week. I must say, I was impressed by both bikes… here’s my reviews.Both of these rigs were designed with input from slopestyle madman Jordie Lunn, and I’m pretty sure he’d feel comfortable doing his wacked out 360 flips and monster gap jumps on these machines.

Both bikes are in the 34-35 pound range, which is not so bad for a dual suspension freerider, but might seem a little hefty for a single-speed dirtjumper.
