TOP TUBE CABLE ROUTING
Running the cables up under the top tube keeps cables and housing out of the muck for more precise and reliable shifting performance.
ZERO-STACK INTERNAL HEADSET
Durangos feature a Zero Stack internal headset that places both the cups and bearings inside the head tube instead of outside. This reduces the total stack height (including the head tube), which is especially beneficial on big wheeled bikes. The larger diameter head tube also provides a larger weld interface at the critical head/top/down tube junction.
STOPPING POWER
Top-notch braking shouldn’t break the bank. Disc brakes offer the power, all-day, all-conditions reliability.
COMPLETE SHIMANO SHIFTING SYSTEM
Fully integrated shifting systems offer the most precise and reliable performance. That’s why all of our Durango models feature Shimano shifters, front and rear derailleurs, cassettes and cranksets.
REPLACEABLE DERAILLEUR HANGER
Because it’s much easier and much less expensive to replace a derailleur hanger than it is to repair or replace a frame, every Durango frame offers a replaceable derailleur hanger designed to yield in a crash before the frame does.
DUAL WATERBOTTLE MOUNTS
Every Durango offers two water bottle mounts located inside the main frame. This provides excellent hydration capacity in an easily accessible position.
PEDALING PLATFORM
The aluminum frame on the Durango is beefed up to include a larger 34.9mm seat tube, which allows us to spec an over-sized 31.6mm seat post. The larger diameter post flexes less, providing a firmer pedaling platform.
FRAME MATERIALS
Lightweight and strong 6061 series aluminum tubing, featuring over-sized & tapered tubing for increased frame stiffness.
ALEX TD26 DISC-SPECIFIC RIMS
Disc hubs twist during braking. This twisting increases “pull” load on the nipples in the spoke bed. The Alex TD26 spoke bed on the rims specified on Expert, Comp and Sport is cleverly reinforced to resist disc brake torque and prevent spokes & nipples from shearing.
HELIX SERIES
Building great recreational-level bikes for both men and women that ride much like our hi-end bikes is a passion at Jamis. And no bikes showcase our commitment to do just that better than these. The 27.5” wheel size is not a compromise between 26” or 29”: it’s the best of both worlds. The Helix chassis emphasizes all-day performance and quick handling without being overly darty. Low standover, short reach stems and brakes, wide range gearing and gender specific saddles are just some of the features of the highly capable Helix line-up.
