Jamis Hudson Step Thru (2021)

The Jamis Hudson is the right choice for people a little intimidated by the balancing and quicker handling of hybrids.\nIt is a modern, well designed alternative to a heavier and slower beach cruiser. \nSpecially designed for flat-footed starts and stops, the Hudson’s laid back seat tube and lowered bottom bracket height allows riders to pedal efficiently with proper leg extension and still reach the ground easily when seated.\nThe bikes 27.5 x 2.35 tires are very wide, for safety and stability, but still easier rolling (because they are taller) than the outdated 26 inch wheel size still used on most cruisers and Electra Townies.\nThis version of the Hudson is the best seller and is equipped with 7 speeds from a Shimano push button shifter, V brakes and a plush memory foam saddle. \nHead to Head Comparison\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDrivetrain\nBrakes\n\n\nJamis Hudson\n$600\n7 speed\nV-Brakes\n\n\nSpecialized Roll\n\n$700\n7 speed\n\nV-Brakes\n\n\n\n\nSpecifications \n\n\n\nFrame\n6061 TIG-welded
