Jamis Citizen 1 Step-Thru Lightweight 6061 aluminum frame with hydro-formed top tube and internal cable routing Hi-tensile steel unicrown fork Alloy rims, alloy hubs Shimano EZ-Fire Plus 21-speed shifters Forged alloy crankset with chainguard Promax linear-pull brakes with Shimano levers Jamis alloy micro-adjust seat post Jamis Comfort saddle with bumper springs EASY ACCESS We’re super proud of the Citizen’s sleek frame design. With an arcing top tube for the “Men’s” frames and S-bend top and down tubes for a super-low step-through “Women’s” version. In fact, we hesitate to designate either with gender specific labels because the version with the easy-access, low step-over top tube is suitable for anyone with limited hip flexibility who might be challenged to swing a leg over the rear wheel when mounting & dismounting. EASY ON THE NECK & BACK A usual complaint from new or returning riders trying to get into the cycling groove is feeling uncomfortably perched forward with too much weight on their wrists and having to crank their necks backwards just to be able to see in traffic. We specifically designed our Citizens to remedy this. The large diameter 700c wheels push handlebar height up and shorter top tubes pull handlebars closer to the saddle, all to mitigate forward lean. Our 4-inch rise handlebars sweep back at a natural hand-grasp angle with a long-quilled or angle-adjustable stem that allows for a wide range of adjustment to tune handle bar height and reach perfectly for each ride. GEARED TO GO The shifting systems on all our Citizens feature long cage rear derailleurs, full-size 48/38/28T triple-chainring cranksets (single 44t chainring for Citizen base model) and big 11-32T or 14-34T gearing in the back. This gives you the dual advantage of having fairly tall gears for controlled pedaling at speed on descents as well as really low gearing for easier pedaling uphill. It’s a rider-friendly combination that’s made the Citizens a perennial favorite of recreational cyclists.

From class to the office, and the greenway on the weekend, the Adventure is ready to bring comfort to your ride, and a smile to your face. It’s built to go anywhere and up the comfort for easy-riding, while thoughtful design makes it just as simple to store as it is to ride.

Kona's Unit 2-9 is a sturdy 29-inch singlespeed. It's made by individuals who understand the needs of adventurous people who enjoy off-road riding with only one gear. The Unit 2-9 is made from high-end Dedacciai butted-chromoly tubing, which rides buttery smooth while offering plenty of stiffness when you need it. The same goes for the Kona P2 fork, tough FSA cranks and fabulous Avid mechanical disc brakes. Plus, with the big 29er Sun wheels, you'll roll over anything that dares get in your way.

Everyone remembers their first bike; the combination of freedom and fun. That bike needs to be fun, comfortable and safe, which is why Laser 16 features a lightweight aluminum frame, removable training wheels, and BMX-style handlebars and saddle.

The lightweight and durable aluminum Laser frame is easier to pedal than steel, giving young riders the confidence to keep up with mom or dad. The 20-inch Laser actually offers two types of brakes: a standard rear coaster brake, which most youngsters are familiar with, and a rear V-brake which many are not. Having the rear coaster brake as a back-up allows youngsters to get used to hand-braking without going cold-turkey on the coaster brake they are comfortable with. The alloy rims are anodized black to provide even greater corrosion and rust resistance than the alloy already possesses, and the rim sidewalls are ground to provide a smooth braking surface for the rear V-brake. Jamis builds the Laser 2.0 wheels with 36 spokes in a 3-cross lacing pattern for strength and durability, and mounts knobby BMX tires that bite in the dirt but also feature a rounded profile that rolls smoothly on neighborhood streets and driveways.
