Big
air. Sick drops. Huge descents. Giant gaps. Serious speed. This is your
playground. But this isn’t about being crazy. This is about riding over
anything, with the control and confidence to make it stick and the
mechanical durability to last. Maybe your friends think you’re crazy.
Loco. But you have the skills and the gear, and you know better— trying
it without a BAM…. now that’s nuts.
With Jamis mp3 suspension mated with the position-sensitive damping of the Fox DHX shocks, the BAM ride is super-active and plush with minimal pedal feedback or chain growth. Wide 150 mm rear dropout spacing makes room for beefy 2.5” tires, held secure by a 12 mm Maxle axle and matched by 180 mm travel forks with 20mm thru-axles: all to keep you in control and out of the repair shop.

Pros
- Love all the parts
- No flex
- Strong and Tough
Cons
- Could weigh less
Best Uses
- Around town tearing it up
- Downhill
I use this bike down through the creeks around my house. 5ft drops, 10ft gaps and jumping over the water. Such a blast. I rode this a few time on the street and its fine, except when going up hill, it gets a little heavy. Other than that it is a great bike. Also, since it is a downhill bike I love that it is an 18 speed (2x9).
