yea its a good bike though get it for super cheap do the frames really crack as much as they say?

The Parker frames will most likely crack on you. The rear triangle always seems to be the victim.

Yea, my friend broke his Parker

im pretty confident that it's not going to break. my bike is set up so it doesnt bottom out easily also the ones that would break were the 2009s this is a 2010 frame with alot more strength so i doubt it's going to break also if it does i will just get a different fame.

That's a lot of bashing on a bike you're trying to sell for $3000 right now!

DO NOT BUY A JAMIS! I Had a 2010 Bam that cracked in half after less than 15 rides. I was knocked unconcious and taken away on a strecher when it broke. DO NOT BUY ONE. YOU WILL GET SERIOUSLY HURT 100%

Dang!!! Even the 2010's are bad? I thought they fixed that problem when they came out with a re-designed frame.

Mine broke about 5 months ago, and I have a 2008 model

Sorry to hear that man. I cracked mine on a weld where the top tube meets the head tube. I got a red warranty frame that I'm trying to sell. I got myself a new 303 RDH. Jamis needs to get their act together with all these frames cracking. Heal up man.
