JAMIS XENITH COMP
The 2010 Xenith Comp won Bicycling magazine's coveted Editor's Choice Award for Best Recreational Road Bike. But we didn't rest on our laurels—this year's bike is even better, kitted out with Shimano's 20-speed 105 road group to bring you more bang for the buck.
To be frank, last year's bike had to be a shoo-in for Bicycling honors. The high modulus carbon frame receives our Dyad Plus fiber lay-up, tri-oval shaped top and down tubes in size-specific diameters for optimal ride tuning, and the power-enhancing stiffness of a BB30 OS bottom bracket shell, asymmetrical chainstays and a full carbon, hollow crown monocoque fork. Nobody else provides this much tech for so little green.
