Jamis Bicycles

Jamis Bicycles is a renowned American bicycle brand with a deep-rooted history in the cycling industry. The brand was founded in 1979 in Tallahassee, Florida, starting with the release of the 'Earth Cruiser' beach cruiser. Over the decades, it has evolved into a global competitor known for its high-performance road, mountain, and gravel bikes. While the brand's engineering and design are centered in its U.S. headquarters, the physical manufacturing of the frames and components primarily takes place in specialized facilities in Taiwan and China to leverage advanced carbon fiber and alloy production technologies.

Today, Jamis is a subsidiary of G. Joannou Cycle, a long-standing family-owned distributor and manufacturer. This ownership has allowed Jamis to maintain a boutique-brand feel while benefiting from the logistical and financial stability of a major international distributor. The brand continues to focus on 'size-specific design,' ensuring that riders of all heights receive a bike with optimized geometry and performance characteristics.
