Jamis Taxi 16-inch
Details
OBSESSIVE ABOUT RUST RESISTANCE
Most of the parts specified on our Taxi are made of aluminum to save weight, but also to help preserve the finish of the bike. Aluminum parts include the seat post, seat clamp, stem, rims, front hub, kickstand and crank arms. We’ve even specified a specially treated chain on the Taxi that protects the chain against rust in even the harshest conditions. In fact, this coating increases the rust resistance of the chain up to 500 times (!) that of a regular chain.
