Jamis Eden 26+

jamis_27.5_plus - 3

The Jamis Eden is the women’s version of the Komodo (more on that bike up next). The bike features an aluminum frame and a 120mm fork, which makes this a true “trail” hardtail. The rear end is Boost 148 and the Eden even features internal routing for a dropper post (included on the higher-end build).

This bike was rocking WTB Scraper rims (but remember, 26+, not 27.5+) and WTB’s new plus tire, the Ranger.

 
A mountain bike resting on sandy terrain, surrounded by lush green vegetation and blue skies. The bike features thick tires, a sleek frame, and a contrasting saddle, showcasing its design for off-road biking.
