JetStream P8
Perfect for
- Long, hard commutes on nasty roads.
- Long weekend tours.
- Beating traffic on morning rides into the city.
Urban Performance Bikes
For 2008, the JetStream P8 gets a
complete make-over with an all new
frame developed in collaboration with
suspension meisters German A. The
location of the frame pivot point and
suspension kinematics have been
radically re-worked for improved
function. In combination with the
German A designed Kinetix fork, the
effect is nothing short of a revelation.
So, whether your riding tends to be
long tours in the countryside or jaunts
bombing around the city at rush hour,
the JetStream P8 lets you float above
the road in comfort.
- Custom X Fusion, air, adjustable - can be tuned for different riders and riding styles.
- SRAM X7 drive train for fast, crisp shifting.
- Kore I-Beam saddle and seat post system is extremely light and offers 200% more fore/aft adjustment.
- Schwalbe Marathon Racer tires are fast-rolling and puncture resistant.
