When it comes to covering a lot of miles, in comfort, the only thing that might beat a Jamis Ventura is a Mercedes- Benz. On cruise control. With its comfortable-yet-aero riding position, smart parts spec and road-smoothing ride, Ventura is a perennial favorite of magazine editors, distance riders and weekend cyclists.

The Ventura’s ride-all-day demeanor comes from one of the best chassis to ever hit the pavement, with geometry tuned for nimble handling, cornering confidence and straight-line stability.
