    And One Great Bike Shop.. See Teelo Teeling at the "Bike Depot".. He will hook you up... Plus, they have the "Champagne Ride" every Saturday morning.. Usually 3 to 4 different speed groups.. Usually 30 to 60 people show up.. Especially during nice weather.. Spring, Summer, & Fall.. everyone is Friendly & Welcoming... Lots of quiet country roads... Cane Creek Park not far..

      I own a blue Scott Aspect 950 (2019), I want to buy Jamis Ventura A1, same as yours in 61 frame. And then, maybe I will modify my Scott into a gravel, because for off-road travels with huge height and weight of rider, you still need a full suspension. And a gravel bikes have a different character from a road bikes, but I still think, that a best choise for it will be a chro-mo steel frame.

    Only 9 gears, this 2020, 11 is the norm !

      You are right.. there’s a lot of bikes that do have 10 to 11 gears.. but I've notice 2 things.. I usually didn't use all the gears.. plus I was trying to stay on a budget.. At this price point it had other things that were more important.. I am happy with 9 gear rear cassette... I've already put in over 300 miles... Have a Great Day..

      11 gears components cost twice more. For amateur even 8 gears are sufficient

      I just finished looking at the Jamis.. I am not an expert.. but I see brazens on Front & Back for fenders.. now that being said I think if you stayed with 28mm you should be able to have fenders.. if you get 32mm tires.. I don't think it will work... Good Luck.. Billy Bikes...
