This year, Jamis has upped the stakes. The price of the entry-level Jamis Dakar A2 has crept up by £100 and Jamis has made some key revisions to the spec.
Great geometry, sizing and finish
Needs better suspension and tyres

Impressively sorted (if short) trail bike for the money, but the next model up is even better value. Buy if you want a top value full-sus for a grand
Impressively controlled suspension: Well-balanced cockpit and handling
Great components for the cash
Comparatively short frame reach
