I picked one up in September for cyclocross and to do a couple of fondos this coming year. I havent't got a lot of miles on it but am loving it so far. Very comfortable ride, just waiting for warmer weather now to hit the roads. I think that this will be my go to bike for most of my riding now, it can cover a wide range of conditions, roads and trails.
You're going to love this bike if you're looking for a bike that can tackle any kind of riding! Happy to help you with any questions regarding this bike.
What size tires will fit on the expat. I watched the video on the Jamis website but it seemed to be about the elite. I'm wondering what kind of range of tire size I will be able to use when I hopefully pick the expat up
