The ’08 Komodos were built to bravely go where few hardtails have gone before: under the buns of Jamis sponsored Jordie Lunn. With Jordie’s input, we’ve re-designed the Komodos with slightly steeper geo, a 1.5” head tube for optimal frontal strength, welded on a XAM top tube for lowered standover and increased lateral stiffness, pumped up the seat tube diameter to take a 31.6 post for a firmer pedaling platform, and tweaked the rear triangle so we could stuff 2.4” tires in there.
Available in two flavors -- The 2.0 with 100mm travel Marzocchi Dirt Jumper fork and Hayes Stroker Trail brakes, perfect for the park scene. Or the 1.0 with 130mm travel RST Launch fork and Tektro disc brakes, perfect for all day trail riding.
Step out of the ordinary. Dump your full-suspender, throw a leg over any of these big-air hardtails and get ready to build some serious skills.
