|   Jamis Drakar Sport | storm
Jun 14, 2002 4:46 PM | | Does anyone have or have an opinion on the Jamas Drakar Sport full suspension frame. Jenson USA is selling the frame for $285. I can build it up with spare parts and an extra $200 in new parts, so I will have a full suspecsion bike for $485.
The specks on the frame are;
7005 double-butted aluminum front triangle
Cro-Mo rear triangle
Fully-active, 90mm travel suspension design
Fox Vanilla rear shock
International disc brake mount only! (no v-brake mounts)
Lifetime Warranty

Does anyone have an opinion on this bike or have a suggestion for a different frame. |

Jun 14, 2002 9:02 PM | | I built a Dakar Sport last year and it was the older all CroMo model. With careful selection of parts I was able to get it to a reasonable weight of about 28lbs. I really liked the frame, though I sold it to a friend. I went right out and bought a Dakar Expert and built it up over the winter. I like the Dakar series, they aren't the best full suspension ride out there, but for the price I think they are great.
