Jamis Aurora Touring Bicycle

The season has been zipping by in between the rain and the sun. People have been look and buying road and moutain bikes with no concern for the state of union. Hybrids that are fast on the road and ready for the cross across the field are also a hot item this year. But one bike has not been looked at until this week. The Jamis Touring road bike. I had 2 requests witha few days. I guess it is the season when packing your bike for a trip beyond home is abound. We at the www.getawaycyclecenter.com will have the 2010 demo model soon.


If you want to experience the cyclist’s version of backpacking you’ll want an Aurora, arguably the last of the true loaded touring bikes.
Our Auroras use legendary Reynolds chromoly steel, with air-hardened 631 in the Aurora Elite and double-butted 520 in the Aurora, both with our SST frame design so every size rides like it was custom-built. Aluminum might be lighter, but that half-pound you’d save is nothing on a big tour, and steel’s smoothness won’t leave you fatigued the way you’d be after 100 miles of aluminum road buzz.

  1. Hi Nick: Great blog, thanks for all the info. Do you happen to know when the Aurora Elite '10 will be appearing? Any idea what the color will be?
